Err on the side of more is better. We also recommend you save your responses in a separate document in case of technological issues. This application is the only tool that will be used for scoring so tell your whole story!

TUITION AND FUNDING
If accepted into the Leadership Gwinnett Program, you or your company are responsible for the tuition fee of $3,500.00 which covers planned group activities and meals during the retreats, learning days, and special events. Double occupancy accommodations at both retreats. Full payment will be due by July 15, 2022, if selected for the class of 2023. Payment not received by July 15 could result in forfeiture of your class participation. Because it is both an honor and a privilege to be selected for the Leadership Gwinnett program, the highest degree of commitment is expected of all participants, including 100% attendance and participation in all activities, events, and assignments.
A limited number of partial scholarships are awarded by the Leadership Gwinnett Foundation each year. To apply for a partial scholarship, a separate application must be completed.
