ACE (Augustana Cultural Exchange) Ambassador Program

The ACE program is an exciting leadership opportunity for students interested in developing intercultural skills and establishing friendships with international students. The program is designed to support international students as they transition to the United States and to facilitate meaningful intercultural friendships.  Ambassadors are mentors to new international students, providing guidance, advice and camaraderie.  ACE Ambassador positions are open each spring to returning Augustana students.
