Top 8 Program Highlights


Harvard, Oxford & The World's Best Colleges
For high-performing teens, the Fellowship gives superior college prep and linkages to the world's most prestigious universities. Each Young Fellow can expect their college application to be a clear cut above the competition, giving them the best chance to attend the school of their choosing.

6- to 12-Month Runway
The Fellowship is designed to fit even the busiest academic and extra-curricular loads - by giving each Fellow plenty of flexibility to complete program requirements on their own time and pace.

Weekly Community of Practice via Zoom
Fellows gather once a week via Zoom to learn with each other, tackle real-world problems and apply key lessons to live case studies from the Ni2 community of practice. Fellows have the whole year to attend at least 12 of these weekly Zooms in order to complete program requirements.

Step-by-Step Guided App
Fellows complete requirements on their own time and pace via the Ni2-IIR app, which guides each Fellow step-by-step as they launch their own innovations, master the Superpower-6 and nurture their GPS personal navigation system for how to live a life of joy, meaning and impact.

Credentials & Distinctions
Fellows earn unique credentials, badges and distinctions based on their Fellowship work. Thus, their bios will include a track record of hi-impact innovation, thought leadership and published materials, TED-type speaking engagements and a digital presence that will make their CVs a clear cut above the rest.

Fellows Fund Scholars x2
Fellowship tuition is in line with the price of a round-trip business class ticket (e.g., MNL-NYC or Paris), which covers a full-year 52-week cycle. Each paying Fellow opens up scholarship subsidies for 2 outstanding scholars from less privileged families who participate as scholars (full-fledged fellows) in the IIR program.

Change the World, Inclusively
The gap between rich and poor is first of all a gap in empathy and connection. In YF, Fellows & Scholars from rich and poor backgrounds work collaboratively to launch and support each other's hi-impact innovations, while expanding cross-sector empathy and networks critical to making lasting change happen.

Media & Storytelling
Fellows engage in guided journal entries that catalogue their journey of thought leadership, personal growth and impact. They create a track record of speaking engagements and hi-impact digital presence, while mastering how to tell their own story.
