BestSemester Alumni Ambassador Program

WHO ARE ALUMNI AMBASSADORS? Alumni Ambassadors are program alumni selected to represent BestSemester on their home campus.To be eligible, you must have completed at least one semester/summer term on a BestSemester program and be returning to your college/university campus for at least one more semester.  We are looking for alumni who truly had a great experience and can't wait to share their excitement with their peers! Here's what some of our recent ambassadors have to say... "BestSemester gives college students the real world experience they can't wait until graduation to get. That's what it did for me so they are easy programs to support by becoming an alumni ambassador." Jenny Miner, WJC Spring 2011 Alumni Ambassador, California Baptist University "I went into my experience with BestSemester as a nervous student expecting answers, but what I left with was a confidence in newly formed questions.  Questions about faith, love, and people that have challenged almost every aspect of my life." Angela Williams, USP Spring 2011 Alumni Ambassador, Olivet Nazarene University "Studying abroad was definitely a challenge but one that was well worth it.  My semester challenged me academically as well as in my own identity.  It helped me explore who I am and where I come from." Annie Amador, SSO Spring 2011 Alumni Ambassador, LeTourneau University "BestSemester was one of the most formative experiences of my time in college. Now, a year removed, and through participating in the Alumni Ambassador Program, I'm finding a unique place to unpack many significant lessons and experiences and connect with others about my beautiful four and half months in Uganda through the Uganda Studies Program." Marybeth Conlon, USP Spring 2011 Alumni Ambassador, Gordon College
