The UF International Center will be sponsoring 10 students for the annual Florida International Leadership Conference.  FILC is an opportunity for students to enhance their leadership skills while connecting with globally minded peers from other Florida institutions. It’s an overnight conference from April 6th – April 8th at Camp Geneva in Fruitland Park, FL. There are professional development opportunities through breakout sessions, elevator pitch contests, networking events, and more. But it’s also camp! Students can go kayaking, ziplining, and make ‘smores at the bonfire. It’s a great opportunity for students to forge relationships with their peers in a low-stress environment.

Complete the 2025 FILC application today! The deadline to apply is 3/3.
