Application required
- Specific dates
Have your child fill out the application. Applications are due by 9:00 PM on September 21st, 2024. Applicants will be contacted about acceptance status during the first week of October. If you have any questions, please reach out to us (contact information above).
Teens should visit the website page and determine whether they are interested and willing to commit to meet at the MIT Museum on Saturday afternoons from mid-October to mid-May. Once they decide, the student must complete an application. In their responses, students should provide as many details as they would like to help us get to better understand their motivation, areas of interest, and experience working as part of a team. Applications will be reviewed by the MIT Museum team and students will receive a response from the MIT Museum by October 1, 2024. We will select 12 - 15 students to serve on the Council after reviewing all applications.
