How Do I Apply?

In order to attend RYLA, students must be “sponsored” by their local Rotary Club. The selection process usually begins with an application, followed by student interviews in the January to March timeframe depending on the unique deadlines of your sponsoring Rotary club. An announcement calling for applicants may be posted in your local newspaper, website, social media and/or in local high schools.

If you are interested in applying for RYLA and you haven't yet seen an announcement about it, check with your high school guidance office or contact your local Rotary Club. (If you're not sure how to reach them, Contact Us.)
