Vision
Sofia University is one of the first transpersonal universities in California, founded by Robert Frager, PhD, in 1975. We continue to be a leader in transformative education by providing access to rigorous education based on transpersonal teachings and we’re dedicated to bringing our unique perspective to contemporary challenges, giving our students the tools to make a difference in their lives, careers, and communities.
The vision of the Ambassador Program at Sofia University is to connect skilled professionals and practitioners as ambassadors for fostering a more engaged, supportive and intentional Alumni community in Silicon Valley, greater Los Angeles area, and across the globe.
Ambassadors will seek to strengthen new understanding and perspectives through shared experiences. In addition, ambassadors will be able to deepen the discussion of how the transpersonal can uniquely inform individual lives and current issues of the day.
The exchange of various expert thinkers, leaders, empathic and spiritual voices will provide ongoing ambassador facilitated public events, networking presentations and lectures open to the Alumni community.
What You Will Do
As an Alumni Ambassador, you’ll have the opportunity to assist the office of Sofia University’s Alumni Affairs (SUAA) by representation at various events sponsored by Sofia University. Volunteers will facilitate, coordinate, communicate and express the vision and goals of SUAA with prospective students and the greater community.
How We Will Train You
Sofia Ambassadors will be provided with training in the form of orientation (online or campus) and workshops as needed by the SU Alumni Affairs. Ambassadors will also be provided with all Alumni materials for service as Ambassadors.

Greetings, Future Sofia Ambassadors,
We are pleased to see a more responsive and engaged alumni community at Sofia University in recent years, thanks to initiatives such as our Alumni Newsletter, Alumni Spotlight Interviews, Alumni Tuition Discount, and Annual Alumni Awards programs. With the introduction of the Alumni Ambassador Program, we aim to sustain and enhance this connection even further.
Becoming an alumni Ambassador is a great way to give back to your alma mater and help pave the way for future alumni. You have a vital role to play in promoting mutually beneficial relationships among students, alumni, faculty, and staff for the betterment of Sofia University. Specifically, you will help foster a sense of belonging among prospective students, recruit quality students, and improve university rankings through your enthusiasm, active participation, and unwavering commitment.
The benefits of being a Sofia Alumni Ambassador are manifold, including attending on-campus and off-campus events to recruit future graduates, sharing your stories and insights with the community, being featured in our newsletter and social media platforms, and representing the alumni community to address issues and find solutions. We also rely on you to recruit more like-minded alumni to become Ambassadors.
Serving as an Alumni Ambassador is personally fulfilling and professionally rewarding. Your efforts will help increase awareness in the alumni community that commencement does not mark the end of their relationship with their alma mater. Instead, it represents the beginning of a new, meaningful journey where they can remain involved and make a significant impact on current and future students.
You will have the opportunity to work closely with Sofia’s Alumni Affairs Office, receiving the strongest support from Sofia University, including opportunities to develop your leadership skills. Together, let’s work towards promoting Sofia University in the best possible light!
