Applying to RSI

Choose the Right Application Process

There are three separate application processes for the Research Science Institute (RSI). Please make sure you choose the one for which you are eligible. Students may submit only one application for the program.

US Domestic Student Application

US Citizens and US Permanent Residents (including those living abroad but who are not attending a DoDEA school) may apply to RSI using the USA Student Application process. Send all forms and materials directly to CEE by the deadline posted on this website and printed on the application form.

International Student Application

Students from participating countries other than the US may apply through a CEE partner organization in their home country. Please see the page for International Students for more information.

US Citizens living abroad should apply using the USA Student Application process unless they attend a DoDEA school. Those following curriculum different from that of US schools or who are unable to take the standardized exams common in the US should contact CEE well in advance of the application deadline for assistance.

DoDEA Student Application

Students attending DoDEA schools around the world may apply for RSI through DoDEA. Your school will announce the program and provide instructions in late January or early February. The deadline for your application will be set by DoDEA, and those listed on this website and the Domestic Application Forms will not apply. Please do not submit an application directly to CEE.
