We’re looking for students who are interested in sharing their Augsburg experience with incoming students through a short video. Whether it’s advice for first-year students, a favorite memory, or a moment that helped you grow, your story can make a real difference.

By participating, you’ll help welcome the next class of Auggies and give them an authentic look at what it’s like to be part of the Augsburg community. We’d love to have your voice included in this project!

If you’re interested, please reach out to ayalam@augsburg.edu. Thank you for helping us create a welcoming experience for our newest students!
