We strongly encourage underrepresented students to apply to the Global Bridge Program.

The Global Bridge Program is open to a select and limited number of talented High School Seniors interested in learning about global and local issues, engaging in community service, and participating in numerous LGS cultural and social events.

The students who join the Global Bridge Program will have an excellent opportunity to:

• expand their worldview horizons by attending one of the LGS Freshman seminars;
  
  
• participate in community/global projects as part of the seminars;
  
  
• attend the LGS guest speakers and documentary series;
  
  
• take part in LGS cultural programming such as excursions to plays, shows, concerts, theater performances, films and international events in New York City.

After being admitted to the program, the High School Seniors will become Global Bridge Scholars. They will be allowed to join one 3-credit LGS Freshman seminar per semester and study together with other LGS Freshman Scholars.
