(As filed with the SEC)  

Ambassadors Group, Inc. ("Ambassadors," "Company," "we," "us" or "our") is a leading educational company. Our primary operations focus is on organizing and promoting worldwide travel programs for students, athletes and professionals. Our programs seek to educate, inspire intellectual exchange, and develop the cultural intelligence of our participants. In addition, we operate an online education oriented research site called BookRags that provides millions of pages of content to students and teachers focused on literature. We were founded in 1967 and reincorporated in Delaware in 1995. We operated as Ambassadors Education Group, a wholly owned subsidiary of Ambassadors International, Inc. ("International") until February 2002. Effective February 28, 2002, Ambassadors spun off from International through a special stock dividend to International's shareholders (the "Distribution"). Beginning March 1, 2002, we began operating as an independent stand-alone company.  ... More ...
