Honors Ambassador Applications Available Now

The Honors College is now accepting applications from students who wish to serve as an Honors College Ambassador for the upcoming year. This is an excellent opportunity to become involved with the Honors College and to share your passion for UA with prospective students. From the Honors Ambassador application:

Honors College Ambassadors serve as the official student ambassadors for The University of Alabama Honors College.  They are outstanding Honors students who represent and promote the Honors College through interaction with prospective students, campus visitors, University faculty and staff.

 I've served as an Honors Ambassador for the past two years, and it has been a ton of fun. What exactly do Honors Ambassadors do?

• Meet prospective students and their families for lunches on campus.
• Give dorm tours to prospective students.
• Attend game-day receptions at the President's Mansion before football games.
• Speak at Honors College receptions around the state and region.
• Assist with various other Honors College events.

All Honors Ambassadors are required to perform 10 hours of service (see items mentioned above) for the Honors College every semester. In addition to that requirement, all ambassadors must attend bi-weekly meetings on Thursday at 5:00pm.

The application is available here. The due date is next Friday (Feb 4). The application does contain a couple of essays, so don't wait until the last minute to start.

Again, I can personally speak to the general awesomeness of this organization. If you have really enjoyed your experience at UA and you want to share that joy with other people, then Honors Ambassadors is for you. Good luck!
