Greetings!

 

ARLIS is now accepting applications for the 2026 RISC Innovation Sprint program, happening June 1—August 7, 2026. We need your help reaching outstanding students who can join the talented pipeline of students that you helped build with your past Letter of Recommendations for RISCers!  

 

You are essential to this process because you work directly with students who have the potential to be part of this elite program. Given the extremely high caliber of talented students that come through RISC, your referrals are the key to our targeted recruitment efforts to ensure the next cohort maintains that high standard.  

 

Please share the attached flyer with outstanding U.S. citizen undergraduate and graduate students and strongly encourage them to apply!  

 

Applications are due Monday, February 2, 2026. Information on the Information Sessions are on the RISC 2026 page. 

 

Please reach out with any questions. Thanks for spreading the word! 

 

Best,

Rachel Stoneking
