When I was applying for Global Scholars I was unsure about the program, but being able to participate in Global Scholars this summer was one of the most gratifying experiences. Being able to learn from people my age about real world problems was the best part of being a part of AMP. We get to ask questions and discuss things that aren’t talked about in school, in such a safe space. The action labs helped me to learn so much more about the resources and tools that I can build and use in the future.
One of the things that makes Global Scholars truly special is the speakers that they bring in. Being able to hear from people that are so passionate about what they are doing and that they enjoy talking to us about it. Another great thing about AMP is that not only did I get to meet other students from around the United States, but all around the world.
Global Scholars has helped me realize my potential to change the world and find other students just as passionate as I am. Using the things that I have learned this summer I can launch projects and educate others about these things.
I would recommend Global Scholars to any high school student that is passionate about making a change in the world, or anybody that thinks that they are the change that the world has been waiting for.
