Every summer a dozen or so students from Burbank are chosen to visit our Sister Cities in Japan or South Korea.

It's a wonderful opportunity to learn about a different culture first hand, and to represent our city and our country to people who are always eager to learn about Americans!

Apply now for the opportunity to be selected for this fabulous two week program.

Applications can be downloaded here, or can be found at any of the Burbank Public Library branch locations.

The Southern California Chapter of Sister City International is currently accepting applications for their 2010 scholarship.  Please click here for more information, and to download an application.
