Global Scholar Application

Welcome! We’re thrilled you’re interested in joining us this summer. Please read the following important notes before you begin:

1. You can use this form to apply to any of our programs; please indicate your preference in the check boxes towards the end. If you’re interested in applying to more than one program please check your top choice below, then send us an email with your additional preference: globalscholar@ampglobalyouth.org.

2. This form does not not allow you to save draft content. We advise you to always save a separate copy of your essay responses. Please don’t stress about essays; we just want to get a sense of who you are and what you’re passionate about.

3. We are committed to ensuring as many students as possible can benefit from this life-changing experience. Our “pay what you can” model makes this valuable experience as accessible as possible for families. We will discuss your payment tier *after* you’re admitted to the program; it is not part of this application.

Please contact us at any time with questions: GlobalScholar@AMPGlobalYouth.org. Thank you, and we’re excited to read your application!

Request for Financial Aid: We offer need-based scholarships to eligible students as funding allows. A request for financial aid will not adversely affect your application. If your participation in our program is contingent on receipt of financial aid, please contact our staff prior to submitting your application and paying your non-refundable Application Fee. Our goal is to make our program available to as many students as possible without regard to financial capability, so we ask that you not request financial aid unless it is absolutely necessary to participate in our program.
