About the Application Process
Every year thirty-six participants are chosen for Leadership Brazos in a highly competitive application process. Applications, not applicants, are chosen by a reviewing committee made up of Chamber Board of Directors members and select individuals of the Leadership Brazos Alumni Association. Applications are evaluated anonymously.
Tuition
Leadership Brazos is a nonprofit program of the Bryan/College Station Chamber of Commerce. Tuition is $1000 for Chamber members (either employer or applicant) and $1200 for non-Chamber members. Partial scholarships, based on need are available. To encourage personal dedication to the Leadership Brazos program, all participants are encouraged to pay the first $200 of the tuition fee. Scholarship applications may be requested by emailing Carrie Archer at carrie@bcschamber.org. Scholarship recipients will be responsible for the remainder of the tuition.
