Applicant Statement of Understanding:

Applicant Statement of Understanding: Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis, and I can expect to hear back at least three weeks before the start of the program.

I understand that because this is a small group learning experience, my involvement and participation plays a significant role in the learning of the entire group. I agree that if accepted, I will make a good-faith effort to attend all sessions in full.

I verify that I am currently running for office this cycle.
