After seven weeks of volunteering, participants have two weeks to travel independently before returning to London to evaluate the program and get the flight back to the United States. The application includes a few short essays, a series of questions about the type of placement one would prefer, and an informal interview with former volunteers that give applicants a chance to find out more about the program. Deciding to participate takes a small leap of faith. The roster of volunteer placements and housing options can change from year to year and volunteers can’t choose their placement in advance. But once you are accepted, you instantly feel that you have joined a close-knit group.
