Application Process
How do I apply?
You can click on any "apply now" link and fill out the application right from the website!
How will I know if I get accepted?
The GO Year is designed for 18-22 year old young adults that already have a relationship with Jesus Christ. Acceptance can be affected, but not limited to, the following factors:
- Acceptance decisions are made on a first-come, first-serve basis. There is no blanket "acceptance date." The earlier you apply, the earlier you are considered!
- Applications will close on June 1 each year (for a late-August program start date)
- Each applicant will be reviewed within 3 business days upon submission, and applicants can expect to receive a "next steps" communication within that window
- Should the applicant be selected to move on in the acceptance process, they will be directed through the remainder of the interview process
How many students are accepted in the program?
- The GO Year has a maximum capacity of 40 students
- If 40 qualified students are accepted before June 1, the application process will close prior to that date
When does the application open?
- The application for each year will open on June 1 of the previous year (14 months prior to arrival date)
How do I know if the program is right for me or my student?
- Great question! Please see our Parent Quiz and our Student Quiz on the home page
- These quizzes are an excellent resource to learn more about the program, answer some baseline questions, and get connected with us!
Can I contact GO directly if I have more questions?
Absolutely! Email GO@foresthome.org and we will reach out to you within the next 3 business days
