BEFORE YOU APPLY
President Clinton and Chelsea Clinton will host the eighth annual CGI U meeting from March 6-8, 2015 at the University of Miami in Coral Gables, Florida. The meeting will bring together more than 1,000 innovative student leaders to make Commitments to Action that address some of the world's most pressing challenges. Funding will be available to select CGI U 2015 students to help them turn their ideas into action. 57 colleges and universities have already joined the CGI University Network, pledging to provide over $725,000 total to student attendees from member universities.
Students must be 18 years of age or older and enrolled in an institution of higher education at the time of the CGI U meeting in order to apply. To be considered for admission, all applicants are required to make a Commitment to Action in one of CGI U's five focus areas: Education, Environment and Climate Change, Peace and Human Rights, Poverty Alleviation, and Public Health. The early decision and travel assistance deadline is October 17, 2014, and the final application deadline is December 1, 2014.
