Peace Corps to Offer Campus Ambassador Internship

Applications are now open for students interested in a nine-monthlong internship with a Peace Corps regional recruiter.

Campus ambassadors are university students who work closely with Peace Corps recruiters to expand their reach into new and diverse student groups. The program offers a prestigious internship-like experience, but the ambassadors are considered local experts, not interns. Ambassadors receive training and then share their enthusiasm for making a difference through life-changing cross-cultural experiences.

Ambassadors will post and tweet multimedia content about the Peace Corps every week, identify and connect with diverse student groups around campus, help set up events put on by Peace Corps recruiters, participate in nationwide ambassador photo and video competitions, and organize movie screenings and other activities. The Peace Corps will support the ambassadors’ professional growth through training, sample resume language, a letter of recommendation and more.

Interested students may apply here. The application is open through March 31. For more information, click here.
