Davis College Student Ambassadors

Become a Davis College Student Ambassador today! Two Davis College Ambassadors lead a small group on a campus tour with fall leaves behind them.

The Davis College Student Ambassadors are a group of Davis College students who volunteer their time to assist with events, meet new students and overall show why the Davis College is a great place to be! Ambassadors share their experiences at WVU and offer a helping hand and guidance to prospective students when needed. Ambassadors participate in recruitment events such as Decide WVU and Discover Days by speaking with attendees about their major, interests and student organizations. There are many fun events for Ambassadors to participate in, including campus tours, Research Day, Fall Family Weekend, Academic Day, Kiddie Day at the Farm, and more! Davis College Ambassadors also gather each year to write handwritten notes to all admitted students to the Davis College.
