Alumni °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±½á¹û2023 Volunteers

Our Alumni °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±½á¹û2023 Volunteers (AAVs) are a crucial component of °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±½á¹û2023’s overall admissions effort. AAVs serve by interviewing students their region in-person or virtually, attending local college fairs, and appearing on panels for admitted students. The AAV program gives alumni of all ages a chance to shape the next generation of Sagehens. 

Interviews

°ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±½á¹û2023 interviews are fairly conversational and generally last between 30 and 40 minutes each. Interviews are typically conducted at a public place, such as a coffee shop. Alumni send reports to the Office of °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±½á¹û2023 for each interview conducted, which become part of an applicant’s official file. Alumni interviews take place between September and February. On average, alumni interviewers interview three to five students each fall.

Speak with Prospective Students

Alumni °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±½á¹û2023 Volunteers may agree to contact (or be contacted by) prospective students who wish to speak with an alum to learn more about the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±½á¹û2023 experience. For instance, we may reach out to you if a student is interested in hearing more about a particular major option or career path that may be in line with your experience. 

Attend College Fairs

Have you ever dreamed of representing °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±½á¹û2023 at a local high school fair? Join other college representatives in a school gym or other public space to talk with local students and parents. College representatives generally sit at or stand behind tables while parents and students walk around and gather information about various colleges. The Office of °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±½á¹û2023 will mail you a supply of brochures and handouts prior to the event. Most fairs last about two to three hours and take place in the fall and spring. After attending a fair, AAVs fill out a college fair evaluation form to tell our office about their experience. The Alumni Volunteer Handbook provides more information about what to expect when attending a college fair.
