2023 Rise Challenge Now Open for Applications

2023 Rise Challenge Now Open for Applications

Deadline: 25-Jan-23

Rise invites 15-17 year olds from around the world to participate in the Rise Challenge.

Rise is a program that finds brilliant people who need opportunity and supports them as they work to serve others. The program starts at ages 15–17 and offers access to benefits such as scholarships, mentorship, access to career development opportunities, funding, and more as Global Winners work toward solving humanity’s most pressing problems.

An initiative of Schmidt Futures and the Rhodes Trust, Rise is the anchor program of a $1 billion commitment from Eric and Wendy Schmidt to find and support global talent.

Each year, Rise invites 15-17 year olds from around the world to participate in the Rise Challenge. Unlike many traditional applications, Rise uses videos, projects, and group interviews so applicants have multiple opportunities to showcase their potential. For applicants without access to a video recording device, they offer the option of submitting text responses. For applicants without access to technology, they offer an alternative low-tech pathway through paper applications.
