<p>birene,</p>
<p>Around 75 (to 100?) people are accepted, according to my S, who attended last summer and will return as student leader this year. I have no idea how many applications they receive each year. </p>
<p>You sound like you are really interested. Read up about the program (only last year’s info is available right now online, I think). It is about community service and an embedded outcome of the program is sense of community bonding for accepted students.</p>
<p>Just focus on why you personally want to participate in the program and how your experiences support your interest in the program. I think I stated before that for the Proj Outreach application, my son summarized his resume which had a lot of focus on community service.</p>
