The BroncoStampede Ambassador Program is a public relations organization of students who promote Cal Poly Pomona to prospective students, their families, alumni, potential donors and friends of the university. The ambassadors are a select group of student leaders, who are involved in a number of campus and community activities. Ambassadors are selected through a challenging application process and only those students who exemplify merit, leadership and academics are selected. The BroncoStampede Ambassadors are charged with giving presentations to prospective students and their families, alumni, and special visitors. Ambassadors also represent Cal Poly Pomona, serve as hosts at campus events and inform current students about alumni participation after graduation. Ambassadors have the benefit of networking with alumni, fellow student leaders and members of the campus community.
