Share Your Miami Experience

As you may know, Miami has over 300 student organizations available for students. Two of these organizations work closely with the Office of Admission and share with prospective students their reasons for choosing Miami University. Every spring, we encourage current students to apply to be campus tour guides, who are trained to answer frequently asked questions about the university and share their experiences while conducting tours of campus. These students of course, must brave chilly weather, hot summer days, and the occasional rainfall.

Another organization to look into is called Miami University Student Ambassadors (MUSA). MUSA is a volunteer organization that meets biweekly, gets involved in fund-raiser events, and social events for fun. One of the duties of MUSA is to greet families who are checking in for campus tours and get to talk with them before the campus information session begins. These students also reply to emails, make phone calls to prospective students, and hosts receptions on campus for visitors. If you have any questions for current students, feel free to contact a MUSA member at miami100@muohio.edu.

Both organizations are an excellent way to get to know Miami students and help out students just like yourselves who are searching for the best college. Good luck college shopping!
