Student Ambassadors

About us

What is a student ambassador?  A student ambassador is a current student of the university who engages with enquirers, applicants and our wider community to help answer questions, provide reassurance and support them in their higher education journey.

Whilst they are able to support with application and admission enquiries where appropriate, they are always ready to talk about what it is like to study at our institution, or the great opportunities to join clubs and societies, or where is best place to eat and socialise, in fact any of the important questions regarding student life here in Wolverhampton. 

We have an amazing team of over 200 student ambassadors who represent the University through a wide range of work opportunities including Open Days, UCAS events and school/college events.  They also support many essential university functions such as nurturing, clearing and enrolment.
