Join the CFS Student Ambassadors

The CFS Student Ambassadors is a select group of 20–25 CFS students who serve as representatives of the college for recruiting, development, and alumni activities. Among their responsibilities, ambassadors attend and speak at alumni events, and talk with prospective students and their parents. Several ambassadors blog about their Purdue experience.

  • Minimum two semesters remaining in school

Requirements

  • Participation in the mandatory two-day orientation in August
