We’re excited to get to know you better. Here is the signup page for the Tourable Ambassador Form

Introduction

Tourable is looking for student ambassadors across all US/UK/Canadian universities to bolster its operations and development for its upcoming launch. Here’s a little bit about Tourable:

Tourable is an EdTech startup building premium live virtual 360 university touring experiences primarily for international students. Tourable is one of two startups at the Eric Young Venture Fellowship at Canaan VC as well as being a Blackstone Launchpad and Cornell eLab SP23 startup. Our mission goal is accessibility above all else and the belief that college exploration and touring should firmly be in the hands of students, not curated by university PR teams.

To read a bit more about our mission and assessment of the college exploration scene, see here.

Role Description

Our campus ambassadors are our bread and butter that make college discovery accessibility possible. They are going to act both as tour guides to talk with prospective (high school) students and as ambassadors to bring awareness of our platform to existing college students. We understand that our tour guides must be busy, and we want to acknowledge and accommodate that to make this as fun, low-commitment, but also enriching a gig as possible.

We look for students who are:

• Knowledgable and well involved in their school activities to help us
• Knowledgeable about various programs/courses of study at their university in addition to their own
• Know about the general tour guide and cool facts about their university (e.g. Cornell has a WINE-TASTING class!!) but are also continually committed to learning about their university and students in every corner of campus
• Can commit to at least one tour every two weekends (approx. 1 hour, not all weekends will have booked tours)
• Are passionate about their school and eager to give incoming students the good and the bad about their university

<aside> 💡 Tourable Tip: We find that the best guides are those who are genuinely interested in helping students determine whether their university is the best fit for them rather than convincing the student to apply. School pride is valuable for the role, but try to be as real as possible about your experiences! Not everybody is the right fit for your university.

The Tourable Community and Network

At Tourable, founded by undergrads at Cornell University, we want to make this as valuable an experience for your professional and social life as you find it enriching to talk to prospective students.

We manage a slack channel where most of these interactions and postings occur (you’ll get an invite after the onboarding process!).
