Selection of Participants

• Selection will be made by the Linden Tour Advisory Committee at the end of June for Fall tours.

• Linden recommends a one-day, on-campus consultation for all universities participating in their first Linden Tour. The goal of the consultation is to communicate information to the university about the international student market as well as to help the tour member prepare for the tour.
  
  A member of the Linden Advisory Committee or a professional staff member will work closely with the tour member to customize the training and maximize the productivity of the consultation. There will be no charge to the university for the consultation, but institutions must pay the reasonable travel costs associated with the visit.

• All decisions of the Advisory Committee are final.

Deposits for tour members who are not selected will be refunded in full.
