The A-Team
The A-Team is a group of current students who are hired and specially trained to assist incoming students and their parents through the transition to college. A-Team members are often the first interaction students have with the university, and are ready to step in and help in anyway they can. The overall goal of the A-Team is to integrate new students into Utah State University academically, geographically, and socially. Members of the A-Team have a unique range of personality and skills coupled with a strong and genuine passion for Utah State and the Aggie family.
Each year the A-Team excitedly waits to welcome incoming undergraduate students (new, transfer, and international) to the Aggie family, seeking to make the transition as smooth as possible.
