Governor’s School for Entrepreneurs (Application opens for 2020 on Nov. 15, 2019; Deadline is 1/20/20)
Opening our doors to the first group of teen Entrepreneurs in 2013, our mission is to bring teens from across the state into a three-week residential program, immerse them in a creative space and arm them with the tools needed to unleash their innate entrepreneurial spirits for the betterment of Kentucky. During the program, motivated teams of high school students develop a business model, design a prototype, and pitch their startup to a large audience and panel of judges. This culminating event is known to us as Demo Day. At GSE, they learn about the opportunities, benefits and pitfalls of taking a business concept from the idea phase to pitching it to potential investors. The spark of entrepreneurship is in each of us. But, to become an entrepreneur takes a unique mindset. Successful entrepreneurs must be determined and disciplined, confident and competitive and unafraid of failure. Our entrepreneurs learn how to cultivate creative thought, effectively communicate ideas, apply critical application, approach problems from different angles, consider customer perspective and turn failure into opportunity.

global citizenship certificate program (10/15/18)
The Global Citizenship Certificate Program (GCCP) is a free comprehensive global educational program to guide high school students in expanding their global perspectives with international experiences. Students will lead their own path through the structured framework of the program the World Affairs Council of Kentucky and Southern Indiana has developed to complete the program’s requirements at their own pace over 2–4 years.
Students enrolled in the GCCP will add to their regular high school experience with a variety of globally focused coursework and extracurricular experiences, and track their progress online via our app. Upon the completion of the GCCP with a Capstone Project, each student will receive a certificate demonstrating their ability to:
1. Investigate the world and recognize diverse perspectives
2. Communicate with diverse groups
3. Translate ideas into positive action
Students who will be in grades 9–11 in the fall of 2018 from Kentucky or Southern Indiana are welcome to apply. Students can apply to participate any year between 9–11th grade.
Applications are open until October 15, 2018.
With 1 in 5 jobs in the state directly tied to international trade, global citizenship and competency are becoming necessities for ensuring that students are workplace-ready, both internationally and locally. The GCCP makes Kentucky just one of 11 states and the District of Columbia in the U.S. that offer global education certificate programs to high school students. Still, Kentucky continues to face challenges in global education.

GOVERNORS SCHOOL FOR ENTREPRENEURS (OPens 11/16/18)
The Governor’s School for Entrepreneurs is a three-week residential program in which selected students are immersed in a creative space and are armed with the tools needed to unleash their innate entrepreneurial spirit for the betterment of Kentucky. GSE is an intensive, transformative entrepreneurial experience. During the program, motivated teams of high school students develop a business model, design a prototype, and pitch their startup to a large audience and panel of judges. This culminating event is known to GSE as Demo Day. GSE is open to teens in the 9th, 10th, and 11th grades.
Students are selected based on their creativity, work ethic, and skill set. GSE looks for students who thrive in a hands-on learning environment, who want to roll up their sleeves and truly create their own work, find their own answers, and embrace failure every step of the way. The spark of entrepreneurship is in each of us, but the successful entrepreneur has a unique mindset - they are determined and disciplined, confident and competitive, and are unafraid of failure. No minimum GPA or test score is required to apply for this program. They are looking for students from every content area, including artists and designers, engineers, orators and public speakers, business and marketing specialists, technology gurus, etc.
Entrepreneurs live on a college campus in dormitories with separate quarters for males and females. They learn a great deal about themselves as they live in an immersive community and develop life long friendships. Influential speakers and entrepreneurs, field trips to start up companies and other businesses, special events and engagements, surprise challenges, and recreational opportunities also contribute to the GSE experience. In additional, there are 15 universities and colleges throughout the Commonwealth of Kentucky that offer the same scholarship opportunities as the other Governors Schools.
To apply, students complete online digital applications found at www.kentuckygse.com. The application requires students to create a two minute video, complete the online application, and submit two recommendation forms. There are two ways to apply:

WHY ATTEND A SUMMER PRE-COLLEGE CAMP, WORKSHOP, INTENSIVE, ETC.
Summer pre-college experiences and camps in the performing arts are important for a variety of reasons:
You continue to receive lessons, practice, and performance opportunities during the summer.
- Most often, summer venues will push you to refine your skills due to the competitive nature of the other students you will be performing with.
- Opportunities to meet other artists wanting a strong arts experience that will be even stronger than the experience they receive in their own high schools.
- Opportunities to perform literature or engage in artistic venues that may not be available to you in your own school program.
- Experience a college campus, faculty, guest artists, teachers, and dorms at a school where you might apply - this allows the local faculty and administrative staff to get to know you before your application arrives in the fall of your senior year.
- Study with faculty you may end up studying with in college.
- Experience the location and culture of a different area of the country.
- Gain college planning and audition skills.
- Immerse yourself in an area of artistic focus and passion.
- Meet lifelong friends and mentors in your field - people who may hire you one day for a job.

cooper union summer stem program (New York city) (3/8/19)
Cooper Union's Summer STEM Program application is now open! The program is open to current high school sophomores and juniors. Need-based financial aid is available for the program.
The Summer STEM Program is a six-week intensive that immerses students in hands-on engineering design and problem-solving. Faculty and teaching assistants from the departments of civil, chemical, electrical, and mechanical engineering provide students with foundational knowledge and expert guidance to address real-world problems in their respective disciplines of expertise.
Students also attend workshops on college and career planning and presentation and writing skills. Most projects include at least one field trip to a local business, museum, or exhibition to enhance the students’ experience. This program culminates with each group presenting their work to an audience of invited guests.

bronfman fellowship program for 11th grade jewish students (application opens in september 2019)
This program is for current sophomores that will be juniors for the 2019-2020 school year.
“Before Bronfman, I didn't fully grasp the power of understanding other narratives, and how important it is to see things from more than one perspective. Now, I see everyone in my life differently because of it.”
– 2017 Bronfman Fellow
The quote above is just one example of how The Bronfman Fellowship transforms the lives of intellectually curious Jewish teens from across North America. Every year we select a diverse group of 26 students for a Fellowship-year experience, starting with a free, 5-week trip to Israel. Fellows encounter the land and people of Israel, study major issues in contemporary Jewish life, and meet with some of today’s most creative thinkers while building friendships with peers who challenge and inspire them. We choose our participants based on merit alone, and encourage applications from a wide range of Jewish backgrounds; prior Jewish education is not required.
The Bronfman Fellowship is a space of learning for learning’s sake. An intellectual program without tests, homework, grades, or judgment, where Fellows can give free rein to their curiosity and explore important issues with depth and candor.
