Criteria for Student Selection: Rosters for all trips are developed with a variety of criteria in mind including seniority, previous travel with DA, school citizenship, and quality of application. As a multidimensional puzzle, rosters are developed by a subcommittee of the global studies committee with input from the SLO and trip leaders. For some trips, there are trip specific criteria for selecting students (e.g. language level, demonstrated commitment to service, previous academic coursework...) Are there any objective trip specific criteria that would be important to consider for this trip?(Required)

Assistant Trip Leader Selection: Are there any skills or experience that you would prioritize in a potential assistant trip leader for this trip?(Required)

Questions and Support: What questions do you have for the CSGC team and how can we best support you at this stage in the process?
