Apply to be an Admission Tour Guide
Nov. 2, 2009 by dphillips
- Have you thought about sharing your love for Wesleyan with prospective students?
- Did you have a great Wesleyan tour guide?
- Do you see tours around campus and wish that you were the one leading them?
The Office of Admission is hiring tour guides for the Spring 2010! Admission Tour Guides represent Wesleyan to prospective students and their families as they decide where they will apply and where to attend college. Do you remember your Wesleyan tour guide? Often, a tour guide is the first, and sometimes only, student these families will meet and are critical in forming their impressions of campus and Wesleyan students.
Applications are due on Wednesday, November 11 by 5pm, but you can definitely submit them earlier (and it would be appreciated!). If you are interested in applying, please go here: https://sites.google.com/site/cardinalkey/application. The application can be downloaded (at the bottom of the page) and completed. Once you complete the application, you can return a hard copy to the Office of Admission front desk, or e-mail it to Assistant Dean of Admission Tara Lindros at tlindros@wesleyan.edu.
The position begins at the start of the spring semester 2010. You would need to be available to give approximately 1-2 tours a week (more can be made available if you’d like), and attend meetings (1-2 times per month) as scheduled. Work study and non-work study students are welcome to apply, although work study students will be given preference this semester. Also, we want tour guides to reflect Wesleyan students and the diversity of backgrounds, thoughts, and interests, and encourage all students to consider applying.
If you have any questions, please contact Tara at tlindros@wesleyan.edu. We look forward to reading your applications!
