The Student Ambassador program is run through the Admissions & Recruitment office on campus. The Ambassadors are involved in many things on campus but some of their chief responsibilities include sitting on student panels, telecounseling incoming students, helping man the Student Center Information Desk, and giving campus tours. They have a wealth of knowledge and experience, so if you have any questions, come see them!

Are you excited about being a student at Rock Valley College? Do you have an interest in reaching out to prospective students and sharing your experiences with them? If so, you just might have what it takes to become a Student Ambassador!

The Information Center is seeking members for our STudent Admissions Relations Team (or START Team). START students support enrollment efforts at RVC by providing essential services to prospective students and their families. Some of these activities include campus tours, telephone outreach, student panels, and helping with community events. Students must maintain a 2.5 GPA to be an active member in the program. START has many perks including leadership development, letters of recommendation, appreciation events each semester, and a chance to earn RVC gear and other cool stuff. Involvement in the START program also qualifies you to apply for paid positions within the Student Center Information Center. Only students in the START program will be looked at to fill empty, paid Student Ambassador positions. If you are interested, you may pick up an application for START at the Student Center Information Desk.
