The Student Ambassador Program is coordinated through the Office of Outreach and is comprised of student leaders who volunteer to share their DigiPen experience with prospective students, families, and other members of the greater community.

What are Student Ambassadors responsible for?

Ambassadors are student volunteers that assist the Office of Outreach in hosting events for prospective students and their guests. Under the guidance and supervision of DigiPen staff and faculty, Ambassadors take part in events such as student shadows, peer-to-peer Zoom calls, and correspondence through chat or email with prospective students. Our Ambassadors can also give their unique insight on DigiPen’s offerings based on their own lived experiences in student panels, Preview Days, and campus tours.

All Ambassadors receive mandatory training upon joining the Student Ambassador Program. Ambassadors may also attend additional training and professional development sessions to continue building their skills.

As part of the Student Ambassador Program’s mandatory training, students receive training on ACCSC’s Standards of Accreditation. An Ambassador’s compliance with the ACCSC and the expectations of the Student Ambassador Program are monitored by staff within the Office of Outreach. Ambassadors are volunteers and do not speak for the university in any official capacity. Ambassadors are encouraged to share their honest perspectives based on their own individual experiences.
