Additional Qualifications

 
The following two qualifications are not mandatory to apply and be considered for the Four Corners Program, but if you fall into either of these categories, your application will be ranked higher as we select new students for the program.
 

Interest in a Math/Science Career

Attends a Target School or Secondary Target School

 

We are looking for students who are interested in a Math/Science career.

You don't have to know exactly what field you want to go into (although some idea helps), just a general knowledge that you are interested in Math and Science and want to explore these fields further in college.

The Four Corners Program works closely with 50 Target Schools. STUDENTS FROM 50 TARGET SCHOOLS WILL BE GIVEN PRIORITY for being accepted into the program.

You don't have to attend one of these schools to apply, but YOU MUST GO TO A SCHOOL WITHIN 300 MILES OF FLAGSTAFF TO BE ELIGIBLE.
