| June-August |
One student per winning school takes part in a Young Learners’ Courses in Germany. |
What can your students win?
Winning schools will receive one of ten grand prizes - a Young Learner’s Course in Germany for one student. The prize includes tuition, room and board, as well as partial coverage of airfare (up to US$900). The next 50 ranking schools receive consolation prizes. Unfortunately, given the large volume of participating students, we are unable to provide prizes for every school.
How are the winning schools determined?
Winning schools are determined through the use of an algorithm which takes into account the following aspects:
The number of participants (as a percentage of the total school population)
- Whether or not the school has won before
- Whether or not the school is participating for the first time
- If the school is among the first 50 entries received
