How are students invited to participate in the program?
Students can be invited to the local information meeting through direct
nominations by teachers, former Student Ambassadors, or their parents. In areas
where we do not receive direct nominations we enlist the help of student listing
organizations, which are the same organizations colleges and universities use to
recruit student for their programs. Our goal is to allow all qualified students
the opportunity to participate in our programs. Students can also request an
invitation online.
Regardless of how students receive an invitation, all students must be selected
through an interview process. Students who apply to the program must submit
three letters of recommendation and be interviewed by local delegation leaders.
We rely on this selection process to help us accept the best students and ensure
that they are appropriate candidates for the program.
