Student Ambassadors

Bryn Mawr’s Admission Ambassadors work directly with the Admission Office to coordinate all student involvement in the admissions process. They are leaders of our community who play a critical role in welcoming our visitors to campus.

In addition to being spirited, every Ambassador is a Bryn Mawr expert. They are knowledgeable about the School, its rich traditions, and the many academic and extracurricular offerings. They are excited to meet you, answer your questions, and show you why they love Bryn Mawr!

    What is your favorite thing about Bryn Mawr?
    My favorite thing about Bryn Mawr is all of the amazing opportunities offered to the students. This summer, I had the incredible opportunity to travel to Cape Town, South Africa on academic exchange to study at the Herschel School. During my time there, I had the chance to meet new people, participate in sports, travel around the country (including a safari), and learn more about the culture and history of South Africa. This experience expanded on what I learned about in the history classroom during my first two years at Bryn Mawr.

    My favorite class is English. I particularly enjoy reading and writing, and I love how the English department at Bryn Mawr involves everyone in class by making it interactive and discussion based. It is fun and accessible to the entire class. I also am grateful that I am able to extend my love for writing outside the classroom as an editor of the newspaper.

    What is your favorite spot on campus?
    My favorite place on campus is the turf. Going to field hockey or lacrosse practice always grounds me. I like that for 2 hours after school everyday you just focus on the task at hand and you get to be fully present. It is so motivating to be surrounded by teammates constantly pushing themselves, and you, to be better all while having fun. So many of my favorite Bryn Mawr memories happen on the turf including playing spikeball with my friends in the spring.

  • Madi '24

  • Nora '25

    How long have you been at Bryn Mawr?
    I came the summer before Kindergarten and have been at Bryn Mawr ever since. This is my 12th Year!

    What are else are you involved in?
    I am involved with Bridges, Track and Field (indoor and outdoor). I will also be working with the Upper School and Middle School Dance Companies as well as the Lower School Dance School.

    Favorite Bryn Mawr Tradition:
    I think my favorite tradition is the ring ceremony. I love that the seniors get to give the rings to the sophomores. I was lucky enough to be very close with the senior class that was giving the class of ’25 our rings which made it extra special. I think there is something so comforting about reaching this major milestone with the people that have helped us get there; our classmates, teachers, and upperclassmen. 

    Favorite Place on Campus:
    I love all of the outdoor spaces on campus, especially when the weather is nice, everything is so open and beautiful in the fall and spring. I can see things happening all over campus, people always stop and say “Hi!” and it is just so nice to spend my free time outside between or after classes.

    Favorite Bryn Mawr memory:
    An easy answer is Gym Drill. I love sitting in the gym right before we go onto the field, the rush to make sure we all have our sashes pinned, our hair braided, and remember all the steps. But my more niche memory is my afternoons spent on the quad with my friends in the spring. Either studying or just talking and catching up after our day. The weather is so nice, the campus is so calm and everything is starting to bloom and everything is just so nice.
    What is your favorite class and why?
    English easily! I love to read and write so for me English has always been super fun. Through my time in the Upper School I have been able to grow so much as a reader and writer, I have learned to look deeper into what I am reading and explain myself fully in my writing. A lot of our classes are discussion based and I have always loved being able to talk to my classmates and hear what they have to say about what we are reading. I always seem to learn something new when I am talking to someone else rather than just working by myself.

    What else are you involved in on campus?

    I love being an ambassador for Bryn Mawr because I am able to give prospective students the same feeling I got when I first set foot as a prospective student on campus.

  • Shreya '24

    What is your favorite tradition at Bryn Mawr?
    My favorite tradition is Gym Drill because that’s what really shows our strong and loving community. It’s so fun to see everyone dancing, laughing, and super excited for such a big tradition. 

    What is your favorite place on campus?
    My favorite place is either the Commons Room or the Innovation Lab. The commons room is where I hang out with my friends, especially during lunch and free time. The Innovation Lab is where I have my favorite class: AP Computer Science. 

    What do you love most about Bryn Mawr?
    I love the community and the support the school provides. Meeting with teachers has become so much easier which helps me do well in my classes. When I first came, I thought I would have a hard time meeting new people, but everyone is so open and kind.

    Why attend an all-girls school?
    Coming from a private co-ed school, I thought it would be difficult to adjust to the new environment. Even though technically, Bryn Mawr is a single sex school, we have so many options to interact and have classes with Gilman. Bryn Mawr doesn’t feel like an all girls school rather a place where educating women is the main priority. 

    What do you love about being an ambassador at Bryn Mawr?
    My favorite part is seeing all the students interested in Bryn Mawr because that was such an exciting experience for me! 

    Tell us a little about yourself: 
    I’m leading 3 clubs this year: South Asian Student Union, Mawrtians Who Code, and DECA. Each one challenges me differently and shows me what it truly means to be a leader.

Aside from school, I’m the ambassador for the Maryland STEM Festival and play badminton during my free time
  • Tessa '24

    What is your favorite tradition at Bryn Mawr?
    My favorite tradition at Bryn Mawr would have to be, upper school convocation. After lunch, every day, going to sit in my convocation seat, and listen to the senior speeches of people I have grown up with is something that is so special. Each convocation is interesting in a different way and gets me thinking about what I will write mine about!  

    What is your favorite place on campus?
    My favorite place on campus is the Innovation Lab. I have grown quite fond of the Innovation Lab over the past few years. I have had a few classes there as well as spending loads of time after school there doing work, studying, and hanging out with my friends!

    What do you love most about Bryn Mawr?

    Why attend an all-girls school?

It is an empowering and encouraging environment that helps create confidence in academic and non-academic values and focuses on each individual's core values and contribution to the school community. 

    What do you love about being an ambassador at Bryn Mawr?
    I love introducing and showing new or interested families around the campus I have known my whole life. I am a very talkative person and enjoy answering questions about the school and giving insight into what Bryn Mawr life is like.
