Become a Student Ambassador
Student ambassadors are current KU students who represent the university to visiting guests and future Jayhawks.
What Do Ambassadors Do?
Ambassadors represent KU by:
- giving one-hour walking tours of campus
- giving residence hall tours
- being the student voice on special event discussion panels
- answering questions and chatting with future Jayhawks
Who Are Ambassadors?
Jayhawks! Our ambassadors represent student life at KU. They have lots of different academic majors and come from a variety of states, religions, and cultures. They're involved in campus clubs and organizations — from sorority and fraternity life to academic organizations, service groups and student government. Many have participated in undergraduate research, studied abroad, and held internships while at KU.
Why Should I Become An Ambassador?
As an ambassador, you'll
- share the KU experience and Jayhawk spirit with future Jayhawks
- build an inclusive, welcoming community
- cultivate curious, problem-solving, and team-oriented individuals
How Can I Become An Ambassador?
We typically hire students early in the fall semester, with the application opening during move-in weekend. Hiring outside of the fall semester is on an as needed basis. If you're ready to apply, submit your application on the KU employment website, or reach out to ambassadors@ku.edu to inquire if the application is not open yet.
