A number of documents have to be attached with the Application.

Some of the documents require a special form. These forms are included in the PDF file which you can download and print once you have filled in the online application form.

Two Letters of Reference must be submitted with your application. Both reference letters must be completed by people who know you well (teacher, mentor, employer, family friend) who can comment objectively on your character, abilities, capacities and/or past experiences. References may not be written by your spouse/partner, a relative or close friend.

The provided medical report must be completed, signed and stamped by a qualified medical doctor. If you require a special diet, or have any serious allergies please include details of this on your medical report. If you have any previous medical conditions that may affect your stay at or participation in YIP, they must be clearly stated on the medical report.

A special form for the medical report is included in the Application Form PDF.

If English is not your native language, you will need to provide a certificate of proficiency in English.

YIP is an intensive full-day course taught in English, with challenging content and in-depth theory based discussions. For your admission it is required that you understand and speak, read and write in English at least at an intermediate level.

A special form for the Certificate of Proficiency in English is included in the Application Form PDF.

To give a fuller picture of who you are, and what experiences or events have shaped your life thus far, the YIP application requires a one page text about your life.

You must attach two recent portrait photographs (showing your head only, like a passport photo or similar) with your application.

It is also possible to upload a portrait photo when filling in the application form instead of attaching paper copies.

You are required to enclose a photocopy of your valid passport. It must include visible passport number, date of issue and expiry, and place of issue.

Your application will not be processed until proof of payment of your non-refundable Application Fee has been received.
