What is the ESSENCE College Ambassador Program?
The ESSENCE College Ambassador Program is an amazing opportunity for college students to align their personal brand with the mission and values of ESSENCE, while expanding their knowledge about Media. Essence is looking for Three Game Changers from three different schools (Yes, guys can apply too!) who are making bold moves on campus and living authentically to be their College Ambassadors. As the “eyes and ears” on campus, Ambassadors will provide monthly video, social and blog content that addresses the needs, wants and desires of young adults in a voice that is relatable and recognizable to their own. They will also have the opportunity to facilitate on-campus events.
