The Alumni and Parents Admission Program (A-P-A-P) is a group of Washington University undergraduate alumni and parents of current undergraduates who assist with the undergraduate admissions process. APAP members help the university recruit, welcome, and support undergraduate students. The program also enables alumni and parents to make connections with one another in cities all over the world.
As an APAP volunteer, you will:
- Help raise the profile of the university by advocating for WashU and encouraging admitted students to enroll.
- Stay up-to-date on exciting university developments and undergraduate admissions efforts.
- Receive invitations to receptions with alumni, parents of current students, and admitted and enrolling students and their families.
- Network with alumni and parents all over the world.
