PERSONAL STATEMENT
Every OG program and team is unique. Before inviting you to join one of our small groups, we’d like to hear about you and your interests! This is just the start of getting to know each other – we’ll also set up a 30-minute interview by video chat after we read your application.
Why did you choose this particular program? What do you expect to get out of it?

Show and tell us a little about yourself in words or links to websites. Feel free to jot down a list if that's easier! What are your hobbies? What foods do you like to eat? What's your favourite song, book, movie or TV series? Who inspires you? What animal are you most like? List or write whatever you'd like!

Our programs are intentionally designed to put you in unfamiliar and challenging environments. Which part of this program do you think will be the most challenging?

Would you rather travel to the past or travel to the future? Why?

Do you have any health issues, physical or mental, that we should be aware of? If so, please explain.
