The Young Leaders Summit, presented by the Youth Leadership Consortium (YLC), is accepting applications for a free, four-day, overnight, college empowerment conference open to a diverse cohort of 200 low-income high school juniors from all ethnic backgrounds nationwide.
The 2018 summit, taking place at the University of Chicago from August 9-12, seeks qualified high school students to equip them with the practical tools they need to successfully apply to top universities. In addition, the program is seeking current undergraduate students from diverse backgrounds to serve as volunteer staff and mentors.
