Jóvenes Adelante proudly, officially begins its application/selection process for the 2022 student class on Monday, January 17th, and remains open until February 14, 2022. As of this writing, over 340 students have attended our Facebook orientation to the process; application forms have been available on our website since mid November. JA’s goal is to admit 35 new students into its five-year scholarship program. To meet the target, we will find the students, the sponsors, and the mentors!
The JA application process is rigorous and takes several months, requiring not only evidence of strong academic performance, but a complete package of information that demonstrates both potential and need. In 2021, Jóvenes Adelante received 557 initial applications for an eventual 34 scholarship slots! Each of these initial applications is vetted first for basic requirements: First generation, full-time university students who are residents of San Miguel de Allende who have at least 3 remaining years of study, a GPA of at least 8.5, and are less than 29 years old.
