Can anyone who has been a part of this program share their experience? Is this beneficial? What is a fellowship?
Hi! i did CU in spring of 2022. i can't speak for everyone who participated, but the fellowship was life-changing for me. i got to meet so many like-minded people, network with influential youth, learn about civic innovation, and was even awarded a grant i used to start my own nonprofit. i'd say it's somewhat prestigious, as the acceptance rate is about 10% on average. i highly recommend and have already encouraged some friends to apply for this coming session, so let me know if you have questions regarding the application, which i believe is due the 31st. apps are reviewed on a rolling basis, so try to submit it ASAP if you're interested.
To keep this community safe and supportive:
What type of work or learning did you do in this program? Also are you comfortable sharing your discord username to communicate if you have one? Thank you!
