Meet the CVM Ambassadors
What role do the College of Veterinary Medicine ambassadors play?
- Student ambassadors play a key role in representing the college to prospective students and their families. They lead campus tours, answer questions about the application process, daily life as a veterinary student, and provide insight into the campus and surrounding town. Ambassadors truly serve as the face of the CVM!
- Ambassadors have the opportunity to meet college leaders, network with alumni, engage with prospective students, develop their communication and leadership skills, and travel.
How do I become a student ambassador?
- To be selected as an ambassador, students must demonstrate strong interpersonal skills, leadership qualities, and a deep sense of school pride and spirit. The selection process includes an application and interview.
If you want to learn more or are interested in becoming an ambassador, please attend our informational session mid-August during Orientation week.
