The posting

Do you enjoy connecting with people, supporting students, and being part of meaningful programs on campus? As an Entrada Ambassador, you'll help welcome and encourage future Entrada Scholars through student outreach, applicant interviews, and special events. You'll work alongside the Entrada team to share information about the program, build connections with prospective students, and help plan exciting activities, including Entrada's 40th Anniversary celebration. This role is a great opportunity to develop leadership, communication, and event-planning skills while making a positive impact on students considering Calvin University and the Entrada community.

Experience with Entrada is helpful but not required. We welcome students who are excited about the program's mission and eager to support future students.

Position Title: Entrada Ambassador

Department: College Access Programming Office (CAPO)

Positions Available: 3 Student Employees

Compensation: $15.00 per hour

Hours: Approximately 10-12 hours per week, with an anticipated schedule of up to three 3.75-hour shifts per week.

Term of Employment: 2026-2027 Academic Year Scheduling and responsibilities will vary based on program needs throughout the academic year.

Position Summary

The Entrada Scholars Program is seeking three Entrada Ambassadors to support prospective students, advance enrollment outreach efforts, and help celebrate Entrada's 40th Anniversary. This expanded student employment position builds upon the former Student Interviewer role and combines three primary areas of responsibility:

  • Applicant Interviews and Evaluation
  • Student Outreach and Engagement
  • Event Planning and Implementation

Entrada Ambassadors will represent Entrada and Calvin University with warmth, professionalism, and care. Responsibilities will shift throughout the application cycle. During periods of active applicant interviews, ambassadors will conduct and evaluate interviews. During lighter interview periods, ambassadors will focus on student outreach efforts and planning activities related to Entrada's 40th Anniversary celebration.

Current and former Entrada participants and alumni are strongly encouraged to apply.
