The Student Ambassador Program

Student Ambassadors are essential members of the Outreach team that welcome prospective, new, and returning students to our college community and support them to find and access the information and resources they need to achieve their goals at CCSF.  

You'll see CCSF's Student Ambassadors providing essential support at our Student Success Center Welcome Desk, leading tours around our Ocean Campus, and welcoming community members at signature Outreach events.  

Student Ambassadors are CCSF's student representatives and recognized student leaders on campus. Consider applying to become a CCSF Student Ambassador if you want to support your fellow CCSF students and grow your leadership skills!
