Admissions Process
To start the admissions process, please compete the Application for High Impact Philanthropy and our team will contact you to schedule an interview. The admissions process is individualized and interview-based, with our team looking for a fit between your learning goals and the program. No transcripts or test scores are required.
We cap each class size at 22 to build a strong learning cohort of highly qualified students and allow faculty to customize modules to address the goals and perspectives of admitted students.
Learning community drawn from causes, sectors, and organizations around the world
