UMD Admissions - Student Tour Guide Positions Now Posted!

The Office of Undergraduate Admissions is thrilled to announce the opening of student tour guide positions starting this fall!

In collaboration with the IMAGERs, there has been a transition to a fully paid model for tour guides. This change will enable the Office of Undergraduate Admissions to work more closely with our guides on strategic goals for campus tours and ensure the team represents the diversity and entirety of our university.

EVS is looking to hire approximately 50 guides and four coordinators. The coordinator roles come with additional responsibilities, detailed in the job descriptions.

The best consideration deadline for applications is July 26th, and we look forward to interviewing a diverse pool of candidates.
