Student Ambassadors are current USC students, which means they can provide your students with not only all the facts about studying at USC, but also an insider's perspective on university life.

The Student Ambassador team is involved in a number of engagement activities such as:

  • delivering presentations
  • taking visitors on campus tours
  • assisting in the delivery of USC events
  • providing parents and students with detailed information about studying at USC
  • attending regional career markets and other community events

Our Student Ambassadors are highly-trained and are available to speak with students on a wide range of topics such as what you can study at USC, how to apply, study costs, scholarships, financial assistance and USC's support services.  If you would like to have a Student Ambassador deliver a presentation to your students please contact External Relations
