What level of education is required?

Fellows must have completed high school before entering the program. Most of our students attend Fellows as a gap year experience between high school and college. However, we welcome applicants within the age range who have attended college.

What are the academic requirements?

2026-2027 Fellows Academic Requirements:

  • 3.0 GPA or higher
  • A qualifying score for one of the following standardized tests (superscores accepted):
    • 22 ACT (excluding writing component)
    • 1100 SAT minimum score (combined critical reading and math)
    • 72 CLT minimum score
If you have you not taken the SAT, ACT, or CLT we encourage you to still apply, but also highly encourage you to sign up for one of the standardized tests to get the results before November. We have an agreement with our academic partner that we are limiting the number of applicants without Test Scores.

 

Please Note: If you have yet to take the SAT, ACT, or CLT, you can still submit your online application. You will, however, be required to submit your scores or apply as test-optional in order to receive a final acceptance decision.

If you choose to still apply as “test-optional“, you will be asked to complete an academic writing assignment once you submit your Fellows application. This includes reading four chapters of a book and writing a 5-page paper.

How much does the program cost?

The actual cost for a student to go through the Fellows experience for Class 20 is $42,900. Every enrolled Fellow is awarded the $20,000 Impact 360 Fellows Scholarship. This Scholarship is awarded to each accepted Fellow as an investment into the next generation of leaders who follow Jesus. This reduces the direct cost of the Impact 360 Fellows experience and allows us to offer this experience at the cost of *$22,900. Some students may qualify for additional need-based aid. 

*This is the final tuition amount for 2025-2026 (Class 20) program year.
