Each CGI U student must make a Commitment to Action: a specific plan of action that addresses a pressing challenge on campus, in the community, or in a different part of the world.
More than $300,000 in funding is available for CGI U 2013 student attendees to turn their ideas into action. To be eligible for these funding opportunities, students must first apply online to attend CGI U 2013.

This is a wonderful opportunity for Wesleyan students. But students need to pay their way to St. Louis. Does Wesleyan have funds to cover student travel?
Hi Suzanne, that’s a great question. Students would have to pay their own travel and lodging expenses.
