The Greenheart Travel Application Process in 6 Easy Steps!
Is this you?
You’ve soaked up the program description, admired the photos, and you are ready to start packing your bags! But you haven’t applied yet. That application process! It seems daunting! And you procrastinate. But why put off the trip of a lifetime?
Did you know that you can do the application in quick, easy stages?
That’s right. It’s only 6 steps and the whole thing takes about 30 minutes! Go to the Greenheart Travel program you are interested in and we’ll walk you through it!
- Select the APPLY NOW button on the right side of the program page. Fill out the form with some general information about you, and click submit.
- Once you complete step 1, you will be emailed a link to Greenheart Travel’s application portal. Sometimes the email will go into your spam box, so keep an eye out! If you do not receive an application within 5-7 minutes of clicking submit, send an email to travelapplications@greenheart.org
- Click the link in that email to the application portal where you will complete a second application form that includes more detailed information about your background (education, experience, medical history, host family preferences, etc).
- Next, hold your position in the program by paying a $300 deposit. It is very rare that applications are declined, but if you are rejected from the program, you will be refunded the $300.
- Schedule your 15-20 minute interview via Microsoft Teams with the program manager.
- Review your application and submit 😊
During step 3, please have these documents ready to upload:
- 1 letter of recommendation (can be personal or professional)
- Copy of your passport
- A completed background check. If you are a U.S. citizen, Greenheart Travel provides you an online background check service which you can access during the application process. If you are not a U.S. citizen, you are required to submit your own background check from your local police station.
And that’s it!
After that, we will work with our partners to make sure you are placed in the right school, job, and/or family and before you know it, you’ll be on your way! Go ahead, give it a go and travel for a change with Greenheart Travel!
