The Ambassadors are often the first faces visitors see when they come to the UAB campus. As the university’s official hosts and hostesses, this energetic group of 20 students conducts campus tours, hosts receptions, assists with orientation and athletic events, and represents UAB in the community.
A selection committee chooses new Ambassadors each spring. Members receive partial scholarships and the famous green jacket.
Anyone interested in applying to be an Ambassador must have at least a 2.5 GPA, been at UAB for two semesters prior to serving, and be excited about being a student at this university. The selection process begins in spring 2010. Undergraduate and Graduate students are welcomed to apply. Applications for 2010 - 2011 Ambassadors will be available on November 30, 2009.
