About the role
Want to help more Pitt students discover global opportunities?
Tilting Futures is launching a Student Ambassador Pilot at the University of Pittsburgh. We’re looking for a small group of students who are excited to introduce their peers to the program, spark conversations across campus, and help build momentum around Tilting Futures.
Many students never apply to programs like this simply because they haven’t heard about them—or aren’t sure they’re eligible. As a Student Ambassador, you’ll help change that by sharing the opportunity with your networks and encouraging other students to explore it.

What You’ll Do
Student Ambassadors help spread the word about Tilting Futures across campus. Activities may include:
-
Sharing the program with friends, classmates, and your networks
-
Promoting Tilting Futures through social media
-
Tabling at campus events
-
Speaking with student organizations or clubs
-
Hosting casual conversations or coffee chats with interested students
-
Encouraging students to submit a Request for Information or apply
Expected time commitment: about 5 hours per week from now until the deadline, April 10, 2026
Who Should Apply
We’re looking for students who:
-
Enjoy connecting with people and sharing opportunities
-
Are active in campus communities, clubs, or peer networks
-
Are curious about global experiences
-
Feel comfortable talking with peers and building excitement around new opportunities
You don’t need recruitment experience—just enthusiasm and a strong campus network.
Compensation
Student Ambassadors receive a $450 pilot stipend for participating in onboarding, promoting the program, and generating 20–30 Requests for Information (RFIs) through their referral link.
Ambassadors can also earn additional bonuses:
| Milestone | Incentive |
|---|---|
| Referred student submits an application | $20 |
| Referred student is accepted | $200 |
| Referred student enrolls | $300 |
Accepted and enrolled bonuses are not capped, so strong ambassadors can earn additional rewards while helping more students access the program.
Tilting Futures is an equal opportunity employer. We know a diverse team produces the best results and we believe our team should reflect the diversity of leadership we aim to inspire. Applicants who contribute to this diversity are strongly encouraged to apply.
