Frequently Asked Questions

Who will show me around?

Our Student Ambassadors go through a rigorous selection and training process. Sophomores host shadow visitors in the fall; freshmen are eligible to apply for ambassador roles in the spring.

How are we matched up?

You will be paired with an ambassador based on shared academic interests or co-curricular activities to the best of our abilities.

What do I wear?

Catholic grade school students may wear their school uniform. Students from public or non-uniform schools may wear pants/leggings (no jeans) and any shirt or sweatshirt (no midriffs or halter tops).

What should I bring?

Bring a notepad and pen for notes, plus a paperback book in case your ambassador has a quiz. Note: Electronic devices are not allowed.
