Question 3: How can a student team from my state participate on an international project?

Answer:

Your state collegiate staff can choose to reserve an entire project for your state. In this situation, the Student Mobilization Team removes that entire project from the list of available projects.

If you fill the team with students from different campuses in your state, then the process of application and assignment is the same as the process for individual students who apply through your state program, i.e. students will apply for the international positions you have reserved through your state’s application process.

If the team comes from one campus or church, then you can use the online team registration which the team leader (collegiate minister) can complete on behalf of the entire team.

As soon as your staff has assigned students to the international positions, please send to the Student Mobilization Team office an electronic copy the students’ application information (studentteam@imb.org). If you would like to change your reserved positions or you are unable to fill the positions you reserved, please notify the Student Mobilization Team ASAP.

A student team from your state can participate on an international project that your state has not reserved simply by choosing a project from the IMB’s collegiate project list and by e-mailing (jramirez@imb.org) or calling (800) 789-4693 to reserve the selected project.
