Get Started: Application Process

The Global Leadership Adventures application process is not meant to exclude students from our program. Rather, it is a time when our staff can review each applicant’s motivations, expectations and character to see if they would be a good fit for our program. The application process allows us to make sure that the students’ motivations and expectations are aligned with what our programs offer.

The application includes

  • $400 deposit, applicable towards the total tuition
  • $95 non-refundable application fee*
  • Three brief essays
  • Self-evaluation
  • Background information about the student and their life experiences

Students are required to submit an application (online or printed) which includes a non-refundable $95 application fee* and a $400 deposit ($495 total). In the event you are not accepted into the program, we will refund the $400 deposit immediately. 

Once the completed application is submitted, our staff will review it within two working days (Monday-Friday) and you will receive a reply via email.

Once accepted into a program, one of our coordinators will work with your family to make sure you have everything you need for the program and will also provide guidance on how you can obtain plane tickets, visas (if necessary), international cell phones and immunizations (if required).

Please Note: There is a $25.00 fee for each Returned Check.

*The $95 application fee is standard from September 1 - April 15. The application fee increases to $145 during the Rolling Admission period, from April 16 - End of Season.
