All qualifying applicants will be interviewed and asked to participate in one day of testing to determine mathematical and linguistic potential. Testing is performed to assess academic potential, as well as to determine current education standing.

Selections are made by an appointed committee and are determined according to need, potential, and likelihood of completing the program successfully. As a commitment to excellence in teaching, the selection committee will assess applicants on their potential to develop into great teachers. The committee will look for prior experience working with children, personal commitment to the field, energy, sensibility, adaptability, stability, articulation, and leadership skills.
