How Do I Apply?Like everything at Youth Initiative, our Admissions process is personalized, unique and student-centered. It’s a process of getting to know each other — here’s the basics:
1. Get in Touch Our contact information is below. We’d love to hear from you! 2. Visit We strongly encourage all students interested in attending Youth Initiative to visit for a day–better yet, two days. We want you to see what we’re all about, and experience a wide range of classes. Plus, meeting in person helps us get to know you, and understand what you’re looking for and whether you would find Youth Initiative to be a good fit. When time allows, we arrange a Q&A with the student, parents, and selected faculty members. To make arrangements for a visit, see our contact information below. 3. Apply Complete an application form. We will review your application and call you to talk about a possible interview.
