Application

Sharing the history and culture of the campus, as well as their experiences as Coyote, ambassadors help people get to know and appreciate CSUSB. As prospective students and their families primarily gain knowledge about a university through campus tours, Coyote Ambassadors can play an important role in college decisions.

Coyote Ambassadors lead tours; serve visitors at the Campus Tours and Visitor Center; support programs; and staff special events for the Department of Orientation and Transition Programs, as well as a growing number of other unique assignments. The Campus Tours and Visitor Center offers walking tours for individuals and families (prospective and newly admitted students) and groups (middle and high school students, distinguished guests, donors, guests of campus departments, and government officials). Tours are usually 45-60 minutes long. At the Campus Tours and Visitor Center, Coyote Ambassadors act as campus concierges by greeting guests, signing guests in for tours, providing information, and answering questions. 

The Campus Tours and Visitor Center operates six days a week. Coyote Ambassadors are scheduled to work as their availability permits. During the Fall and Spring semesters, ambassadors must be available to work a minimum of 3 tours on weekdays between the hours of 8:30am - 5:00pm with additional hours on the weekends; work at major campus events; and attend bi-weekly staff meetings every other Friday of the month from (unless you have class during that time). Coyote Ambassadors must be available at least one day a week (Monday-Saturday).

Students who reflect the diversity of the student population. Students who are active on campus and in the community. Love to share their enthusiasm for the university. Have customer service experience. Speaking multiple languages is a plus (we offer Spanish visits once a month).

Submit your application by the published deadline. Qualified applicants will be invited to a comprehensive group interview. Hiring and training take place in January and February. New Coyote Ambassadors will generally begin to lead tours in March/April.
