Applications Now Open for the 2016 Bank of America Student Leaders Program

Bank of America seeks community-minded high school juniors and seniors to apply for the Student Leaders program.

For the first time, Bank of America is seeking high school juniors and seniors in Cuyahoga County who are active in their communities to apply for the Bank of America Student Leaders Program.

Each year through the Student Leaders Program, Bank of America awards teens nationwide who have demonstrated leadership qualities with a paid, eight-week summer internship with a local nonprofit. In addition, students will participate in a leadership summit in Washington, D.C., with other student leaders from around the nation.

Through the internship and summit, these young leaders have the opportunity to network with like-minded individuals who share their passions while discovering their own talents for serving their community and leading others.
