Undergraduate Admissions Alumni Volunteers
----------------------
Alumni can share their Penn State pride as an Alumni Volunteer. The Undergraduate Admissions Office, in cooperation with the Alumni Association, has established an alumni corps who assist with recruitment activities throughout the country. Since the early 1980s, Alumni Volunteers have worked with the Undergraduate Admissions Office and have become a vital part of recruitment strategies. More than 1,000 alumni are currently volunteering at local Penn State campuses and in their communities.

Alumni volunteers could be involved in:

• Assisting Penn State campuses with recruitment activities;
• Identifying quality students from local high schools who are interested in Penn State;
• Contacting local high school guidance offices and serving as a resource of information;
• Contacting students who have received offers of admission;
• Attending local college fairs as a representative of Penn State;
• Assisting with student receptions and open houses;
• Attending summer sendoff receptions hosted by the Alumni Association and the local alumni chapter.
