When you are ready to apply, please use the online survey application process. Please click here to access the online application.
Please note: Though you can edit the application while you are in the survey, you cannot save your progress and return to it later. Please schedule enough time to complete the survey before you begin it, as it contains several short essay questions. If you would like to see the application questions ahead of time to prepare your response (or print a paper copy to share with a youth in your community), please click here to view a blank application.
(Note on Paper Applications: Youth are strongly encouraged to apply through the online system; however, if that is not possible, they may type their responses into the blank application and mail it to the address at the end of the survey. Responses typed into this system also cannot be saved and must be printed before exiting. Responses to the essay questions on the blank application must be limited in length to the size of the text box shown or they will not print. If you use the paper application, you must also click here to download and complete the signature page and include it with your application.)
