5 Reasons You, Yes YOU, Should Be A JMU Student Ambassador
Colleen Coleman

If you love James Madison University, are passionate about service and are looking for a home at the place we call the happiest in the world, you should #APPLYSA! "But, Colleen," you say. "Why should I apply for Student Ambassadors?"

Well, let me tell you why...

1. As a JMU Student Ambassador, you get to give tours of the place we all love so much!

From SSC to the village to the quad and a ton of fun stops in between, you get to show off the amazing campus we are all so blessed to call home!

2. As a JMU Student Ambassador, you get to serve your fellow students, prospective students AND their families, Admissions and the Harrisonburg community!

Whether giving tours or serving on one of our organization's committees, you get to make a direct impact on others and embody the JMU mission to "Be the change".

3. As a JMU Student Ambassador, you get a second family.

Over a hundred new pals who will bring out the best in you and never again will you be able to walk through the Student Success Center without a million hellos, hugs and huge smiles from our favorite booth!

4. As a JMU Student Ambassador, you are given daily opportunities to become the best YOU can be.


Whether gaining customer service skills answering questions on tours, becoming a better communicator as you lead families around campus or learning how to be a more aware citizen through service in the community, SA will challenge you to become a more confident and authentic YOU!

5. As a JMU Student Ambassador, YOU get to serve as the face of JMU.

Whether your purple polo is on or off, you are a representation of the authentic, service-minded and passionate students we call the students of James Madison University. But the purple polo doesn't make you, YOU make the purple polo.

See where Ambassadors will take you! Applications are live at jmusa.weebly.com and are due Oct. 20th! Questions? Please email savpofmembership@gmail.com. #APPLYSA and....
