Student Ambassadors are MiraCosta students hired by the School Relations/Diversity Outreach Department to provide outreach services at K-12 schools and throughout the community.  Ambassadors serve as peer advisers to high school students in local schools, develop workshops for elementary and junior high school students, provide information at community events, provide on-campus tours, and perform a variety of other important duties for the college. Ambassadors must be enrolled in at least 12 units, maintain a 2.5 grade point average, and be available to work between 5 and 15 hours per week.
