Established in 2010 as the Office of Student Life’s signature leadership development experience, the Buckeye Leadership Fellows Program (BLF) provides transformative experiences which empower undergraduate students to challenge themselves to continuously improve, to identify their place within the world, and to mindfully engage in their post-graduate pursuits.
Buckeye Leadership Fellows spend two-years in a select, interdisciplinary cohort, engaging in rigorous personal, professional, and leadership development activities. The experiential program exposes students to a range of public and private industries and encourages them to think differently about how to apply their talents and studies in a practical way. Interested students can apply to the program during their sophomore year.
The Office of Student Life Buckeye Leadership Fellows Program (BLF) is accepting applications for prospective fellows for the 2018-20 class. Interested students may apply during their sophomore year or junior year. Applications are due Friday (10/6) at 11:59 p.m.
