Student Shadow Request Form

Student Shadow Request Form

Our Student Shadow Program gives prospective students the opportunity to explore a day in the life of a DigiPen student by attending class and spending time with a current Student Ambassador. Student Ambassadors are volunteer students who are available to share their first-hand experience at DigiPen.

We are excited to have you with us for a day! Please fill out the form below to submit your request. Please note, this request form does not count as registration; an admissions counselor will reach out via email to confirm all of the details before we officially schedule your Student Shadow experience.

Student Shadow opportunities will be available from January 20th through April 6th for the Spring 2026 semester. Please refer to the academic calendar here for information about school breaks, holidays, and upcoming events!
