Who participates in NYLC?
NYLC accepts high school sophomores, juniors and seniors who meet the highest criteria in academics and leadership. These remarkable scholars are nominated by high school educators or CYLC alumni in conjunction with school officials. In addition, Achievement Nominations are granted based on information provided on voluntary pre-college surveys, such as the National Research Center for College & University Admissions Post-Secondary Planning Survey. Survey participants have requested that the survey information be made available to colleges, universities and other approved educational organizations.
