Admissions Criteria
We offer Sidak fee-free for 60 applicants. Applications will be reviewed by a three-person committee that includes Sidak graduates and instructors.
The application process strives to create a cohort that celebrates the individual journey in service of collective Panthic goals. There is no “standard Sikh” we look for. Instead, we want to hear about how Sikhi is part of your personal experience. We will look for the following characteristics:
Leadership
We are looking for the current and future Sikh leaders who will help shape our world. How have you impacted the communities you are part of in formal and informal ways? Leadership can take many forms - in communities, families, schools, and work. Tell us where you have taken the lead, and most importantly, what it taught you.
Growth
To make the most of Sidak, we seek to find applicants ready to self-reflect, be curious, and grow. Help us understand how you have evolved in the past and how you hope to grow in the future. How will Sidak help you make the most of your life?
Analytical Aptitude
Sidak is a fast-paced, action-packed leadership retreat where you balance assignments, reading, and delving deep into course material. We look for individuals excited by the prospect of learning, discussing, and debating through the lenses of Gurbani, Tvarikh (history), and Rahit (lifestyle). We will examine your academic and work accomplishments to understand and assess your thirst for knowledge and analysis ability.
