My daughter is always pestering me about it. The way it works, your kid gets a packet telling him/her how great they are and they've been selected for this exclusive, fun-filled, edifying trip.

The group seems legitimate. It's non-profit but I would bet a lot the principals are well-compensated. I went to a presentation about it that was pretty slick. Google traffic about the experience is mixed. My recollection is that for about a two-week gig you are out about $5K (US). They talk about scholarships but those are iffy and meanwhile you're supposed to start making payments. Plus there's a non-trivial application fee, non-refundable.
