Kentucky State University Presidential Ambassadors

Program Overview

Kentucky State University Presidential Ambassadors are a select group of student leaders who serve as official representatives of the University and the Office of the President.

Through their professionalism, service, and Thorobred pride, Presidential Ambassadors help create a welcoming and memorable experience for prospective students, families, alumni, donors, University partners, distinguished guests, and members of the community.

Ambassadors support presidential and University events, campus tours and recruitment activities, alumni and donor programs, and other special functions on and off campus. In doing so, they gain valuable leadership experience, strengthen their communication and professional skills, and build relationships across the Kentucky State community.

Selection as a Presidential Ambassador is both an honor and a responsibility. Ambassadors are expected to represent Kentucky State with integrity, dependability, enthusiasm, and distinction.
