Ambassador Selection Criteria

High school sophomores are chosen to attend based on the following:

• Emerging leadership ability
• Ability to work well with others
• Desire for new pursuits
• A willingness to learn and share

    Each September, HOBY's selection process begins when the nomination materials are sent to the 22,000 public and private high school's in the United States.  All tenth graders are eligible for selection to attend one of the three- or four-day weekend seminars held each spring/summer in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Hong King, Canada, Israel, and Mexico.  A sophomore leader is nominated by each school and is certified by the principal.  These expense-paid workshops focus on the theme "America's Incentive System" and "Leadership for Service."  One boy and one girl are selected to represent their local seminar at a week-long World Leadership Congress held in late summer.  In addition, HOBY invites young leaders from at least 30 countries to attend to the World Leadership Congress.
