The Alumni Ambassador Program at UC Berkeley provides opportunities for alumni to support student admission efforts to recruit and enroll a competitive and diverse student body. As an alumni ambassador, you are the “face of the University” for the students and parents whom you will assist. Often, you will be the first and only representative of UC Berkeley whom they will meet, so it is important that you make a positive and professional impression, and that you use the resources provided to present accurate information.

Familiarize yourself with ALL training materials and brochures provided by OUA
Punctual attendance to the event(s) you commit to attending

Describe your own experience with UC Berkeley as a student
