Each year, we receive more than 1,000 applications from prospective Scholars, with around 800 progressing on to the interview stage of our program application process – our New Scholar Selection Days! Volunteers make up an integral part of this new Scholar selection process, helping our Dream Team to conduct interviews with students and select the new Scholar Class of 2030.
The 2025 New Scholar Selection Days will be held during the following dates and times:
Virtual Interview Dates: April 7th, 8th, 9th from 5:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m., and April 12 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.
In-Person Interview Dates: April 14th, 15th, 16th, and 17th; 5:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m.
