Project LEAP 2022 Application is Open!

The Project LEAP 2022 student application is now open.   Students can apply on our website, by using this link: https://projectleap.formstack.com/forms/studentapplication, or by scanning the QR code on the attached flyer. The application will remain open until April 30th at 11:59PST.  Alternatively, I would love to meet with you or your students to give more information about the program and walk them through the application process.  


Rising sophomores with a 3.0 GPA or higher are eligible to apply.  Sophomores and Juniors with a 3.25 GPA or higher are also eligible.  Due to the influence of the pandemic on student success, we will review applications of students whose GPA are at least a 2.8.  Note: it is not the practice of Project LEAP to admit students after their sophomore year of high school however due to the pandemic and growing academic challenges, this is the final year that Project LEAP will accept students grades in 10th and 11th grade.


Students interested in applying will need to attach an unofficial transcript. 


Accepted students will receive: 

  • One on One peer mentorship 
  • Participation in a nationwide virtual program
  • Consideration for up to $25,000 in scholarship funds
  • A Letter of Recommendation from an elected public figure: students last year received letters from mayors, assembly members, and city council members 
  • A distinguished leader graduation cord 
  • Additional college and career preparation workshops
  • Local outings and “LEAP meets” 
  • Free PSAT and SAT prep


Here is a PDF which includes a student flyer, application timeline, and FAQ page for interested students.  If students or parents have questions, please have them email info@leaptheproject.com
