Campus Tours
There are opportunities for both Faculty and Students to aid in recruiting prospective students during Campus Tours:
Opportunities for Faculty
a. Faculty Appointments:
- As a component of their campus tour, many prospective students ask to speak with a faculty member in an academic area they are interested in
- This discussion is often a crucial part of their decision whether or not to attend SOU
- Speaking in-person with a prospective student is an excellent way to forge an individual relationship and help that student better understand what your department has to offer

b. Classroom Visits:
- Similar to Faculty Appointments, many prospective students ask to sit in on a class session as a component of their campus visit
- This is an easy and effective way to give a prospective student an enhanced appreciation for the academic style and interests of our faculty and students
Click here to indicate your interest in having a prospective student sit in on one of your classes, and use the comment section of the form to list the classes where prospective students are welcome.
Opportunities for Students
Campus Ambassadors:
- Admissions hires several student campus ambassadors each year to serve as tour guides
- This is a great and fun opportunity to have a positive influence on prospective students and gain valuable leadership and communication skills in the process
- Campus Ambassadors also participate in events such as Preview Programs, giving tours and helping with event management
