Student Ambassadors

UWF Ambassadors are the official student hosts for the University of West Florida.  Their purpose is to promote and serve UWF.  As student leaders, they devote a minimum of ten hours per month to special campus and/or community activities.

These student volunteers are selected through an interview process based on minimum GPA requirement, communication abilities and an interest in promoting UWF.  Since the first student volunteers donned their green ambassador jackets in 1986, ambassadors have assisted with numerous university functions and served as liaisons between students, faculty, alumni, parents and the community.

The Ambassador program is supported by the UWF National Alumni Association and the Office of Alumni Relations.

Ambassadors represent the university by:

• Hosting visits of members of UWF's Board of Trustees and other dignitaries
• Participating on committees such as recruitment, promotions, community relations, alumni relations and ambassador social events
• Attending regional conferences
• Serving as ushers at commencement and other special events
• Conducting campus tours for the Admissions office
• Helping with open house visits

Each new group of Ambassadors will complete an orientation that includes an overview of UWF's history, organizational structure, familiarity of campus layout and practice tours.
