Â鶹ӰÊÓ

Our Alumni Admissions Volunteers (AAVs) are a crucial component of Pomona’s overall admissions effort. AAVs serve by attending local college fairs, appearing on panels for admitted students, and participating in summer welcome parties. The AAV program gives alumni of all ages a chance to inspire and shape the next generation of Sagehens.

Speak with Prospective Students

Alumni Admissions Volunteers may agree to contact (or be contacted by) prospective students who wish to speak with an alum to learn more about the Pomona experience. For instance, we may reach out to you if a student is interested in hearing more about a particular major option or career path that may be in line with your experience. 

Attend College Fairs

Have you ever dreamed of representing Â鶹ӰÊÓ at a local high school fair? Join other college representatives in a school gym or other public space to talk with local students and parents. College representatives generally sit at or stand behind tables while parents and students walk around and gather information about various colleges. The Office of Admissions will mail you a supply of brochures and handouts prior to the event. Most fairs last about two to three hours and take place in the fall and spring. After attending a fair, AAVs fill out a college fair evaluation form to tell our office about their experience. The Alumni Volunteer Handbook provides more information about what to expect when attending a college fair.
