How selective is the Congressional Student Leadership Conference?

Question

I just got a letter in the mail saying I was invited. The requirements listed to get an invitation are vague, and I don't know anybody that would nominate me. Is this the kind of thing that get everybody and their brother gets?

Answer 1

I got one too, on the Forum on Science and Medicine.

It's not that selective, but somewhat prestiguous. Not everyone gets it, no, but most people who are invited and apply get in. It looks pretty good to colleges, I'd say- but I doubt it's worth it. I, for one, am not going. But it really depends on your interest and how much time you have.

Answer 2

I got one too. I dont think its every selective.

if u have money (couple thousand dollars) and time then why not? go for it.
