The application deadline for the Class of 2011 was April 9, 2010. The class year begins in September. Applications for the Class of 2012 will become available in January 2011.

Class members are selected based on their potential for leadership and their concern for improving the quality of life in the community. Class diversity is a commitment of the selection process. The goal is to form a class of approximately 25 members who represent a broad spectrum of the greater Flagstaff community.

Applicants must be willing to commit to 100% participation in the program (i.e. attend the Retreat, all Leadership Education Days, and Graduation).

An applicant may apply for financial assistance through either a payment plan or by scholarship. It is intended that every participant maintain some level of personal financial investment in the program. The one-time tuition payment represents the total financial obligation of the participant during the program year.

Because of limited enrollment, the need to maintain a balanced representation in each class, and the large number of applications, an individual may need to apply more than once before being seated in a class. Applicants not chosen to join the class are encouraged to apply the following year.
