Program Overview

The Enrollment Ambassador program relies on alumni and parents of current Xavier students to assist the University's outreach efforts to high school seniors. Those contacted by ambassadors during our spring semester calling campaign are nearly twice as likely to attend Xavier as those who do not receive such personal attention.

Thanks to the success of the ambassador program, Xavier welcomed 1,060 freshmen this fall. The class of 2016 represents the University's second-largest incoming class of first-year students.

During the calling campaign that starts in February, Xavier's ambassadors provide prospective students the opportunity to learn about the positive experiences and values of the University. It's a powerful message that is especially meaningful when delivered by alumni and parents of Xavier students. We appreciate your interest in serving as a leader in this important recruitment program.


Enrollment Ambassador Calling Campaign 2013

You're invited to participate in a calling campaign for alumni, parents, faculty and staff to share your experiences and answer questions to accepted students and their families. Alumni and Admission staff will conduct a training prior to calling, and provide pizza and drinks!

On-Campus Visits and Regional Receptions

Campus visits increase the likelihood a prospective student will choose Xavier. Please encourage students to visit campus even if they have already done so.

There are many opportunities to visit. These include general and program-specific opportunities.

  • Regular campus visits are available on an individual basis by contacting Xavier's campus visit coordinator at 513-745-2940, e-mail visit@xavier.edu or register online at www.xavier.edu/visit.

  • Students can attend the regional admission events in their area that are going on now through April. Learn more.

  • Preview Day, a visit opportunity only for accepted students and their parents, is on March 24 and April 6. Students have the chance to meet current Xavier students and future classmates and get a preview of life as a Xavier student.
