You should submit your project proposal by Friday, 22nd November 2024 at the very latest. Check this google site as often as possible for new opportunities so that you can update your proposal, send it in quickly and get approval as early as possible.
You may choose to do your project individually or as a group. Regardless, every person needs to submit a project proposal.
You will receive approval for your plan latest by Friday, 29th November 2024 if your proposal is satisfactory.
If you are asked to improve your plan, please continue to do so until you receive approval. Use December 2024 to source for anything further you need to enact your plan (e.g. Internships, VIA Opportunities, contacts, etc.). You are to submit a Confirmation Form (coming soon) once your proposal has been approved and all commitments are confirmed.
