Dear Applicant,

We kindly request you to share your semester plan for the Club. Please include each proposed event with a tentative date, based on the academic curriculum in your college. This information will help us arrange mentors who can visit your campus and support your events.

Please submit your semester plan within one week of receiving this email. If you do not share it by July 31, your FOSS Club application will be rejected.

At the end of the semester, we will review your club’s activities and determine FOSS United support for your activities based on your performance.
