A message to perspective Student Global Ambassadors:

Serving as a Student Global Ambassador means serving as a peer advisor and being able to share stories and insights from your time abroad and encourage others to not only expand their horizons but become international learners. You will also make new friends among the other Student Ambassadors who share international interests and experiences. Peer advising offers you the chance to take what you have learned abroad and serve as an experienced guiding force for someone who is preparing to embark on an international experience of their own.

  Student Global Ambassadors must have studied abroad already themselves and maintain a minimum GPA of 3.0. Each Student Global Ambassador will receive an official SU Student Global Ambassador polo shirt in addition to invaluable entry-level professional experience in the industry of international education.  For an application for the program, please click here.
