1. Complete the written application online. Application deadline for Fall 2023 program is February 6, 2023.

2. For those who make it to the second round, we’ll follow up to schedule an interview for late February/early March. We’ll learn more about you and give you a chance to learn more about OVC. After interviews, our team will huddle and share our decision by mid March at the latest.

3. If you accept the offer to join OVC, we’ll then begin the process of matching you with a nonprofit. We’ll gather more information from you and placement partners. You’ll read through project descriptions, placement partners will review resumes. During late spring or sometime in the summer, be ready for one or more virtual interviews with placement partners.

4. Orientation takes place in August and lasts for a week. We’ll have fun together. We’ll pray together. We’ll think carefully about the 10-month program--and how to seize it for all its worth. We’ll build our community. Then we begin.

5. The 2023-24 program runs August 28, 2023 - June 28, 2024 (breaks included).
