At first, I think this is really informative. Through visiting various places, it was really interesting and I think this is a really good chance to experience the real US. I want to recommend this program especially to my friend who wants to participate in the UN program.

Through the Stanley Prep GLI program, I did a 3- week internship with the office of Congressman Jimmy Gomez. I learned a lot from this internship— it gave me a strong idea of what it would be like to work in politics and public policy, and I thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of the job that I got to do. Overall, this was a great opportunity that helped me learn and grow in many ways, and I’m so glad that I was able do this program.

The World Federation of United Nations Association (WFUNA) connects the UN member countries with their citizens through education and training to promote global citizenship. WFUNA is a global non-profit organization that aims to promote student engagement in international relations.
The first notable difference is that the United Nations Online is conducted entirely on the internet! This allows students from all over the world to get access to exclusive program content. The UNAT program is an in-person program in which students are hosted in New York. Another notable difference is the duration and structure of the programs. UNO is centered around the United Nations and takes place over the course of 10 weeks throughout the semester. UNAT is a 10 day intensive program in which students are hosted at the United Nations for 5 days and then spend 5 days participating in a field trip to Washington, D.C.
Regrettably, scholarships are not currently offered by FIET or Stanley Prep for this program. However, we recognize and reward excellence.
If you demonstrate exceptional performance and fall within the top 20% of the session, you will be honored with:
Letter of Recommendation: A personalized commendation recognizing your outstanding achievements.
Certificate of Recognition: Endorsed by U.S. elected officials and esteemed members of WFUNA, affirming your commitment to excellence.
We believe in celebrating success and acknowledging the dedication of our participants. Your excellence deserves to be recognized, and these accolades serve as a testament to your remarkable achievements.
Individuals interested in applying for the summer GL programs may do so by submitting an application on the Stanley Prep website at least 90 days prior to the start date of the desired program.
Due to the remote nature of the program, no U.S. visa is required to participate!
Attendance is vital for successful completion of the UNO course. If you miss more than 30 minutes of the training without a valid excuse three times, or if you miss two complete sessions during the 10-week program, you will be classified as truant.
To receive the Certificate of Completion, consistent attendance is key. Truancy may result in the inability to obtain this prestigious acknowledgment of your dedication and successful participation in the program.
We understand that unforeseen circumstances may arise. If you anticipate schedule conflicts or encounter challenges attending classes, please communicate with us in advance. We are here to support you and find solutions that ensure a positive and enriching learning experience for all participants.
