I have been advised to have those who are interested in getting admission fee help to apply directly on the SLIF website through life@babson. Currently, the cost is $85, but SLIF should help bring this down.

Login to life@babson an find the student leadership initiative fund page. Click on forms on the left hand side and fill out and submit the application right through the site.

Make sure everyone submits before the event date though because they know longer accept applications after events.
