  • Overall academic performance
  • Rationale for participating in the program
  • Quality of academic recommendation
  • Disciplinary record / maturity
Overall, we are looking for students who we think will have the intellectual curiosity and passion for travel that will allow them to enjoy the program and contribute to their classmates' learning.
