Ronald W. Reagan Leadership Program

Recent trips have taken students to Hong Kong, China, Dublin, Ireland, and Madrid, Spain.

We will be taking students to Stockholm, Sweden for a week in May 2025.

Reagan Leadership Program trips are tentatively scheduled for the early summers of odd-numbered years. As such, our next trip will occur in May or June 2027.

Most components of the trip abroad are paid for as part of the student’s Reagan Leadership Program experience. This includes roundtrip airfare to our destination, hotel (with breakfast), one or two excursions outside of the main destination city, museum entrances, cultural experiences, and two group dinners. Students are responsible for any additional spending money, as well as additional meals.

We will be spending a week in Stockholm, Sweden. Sweden, home to a thriving democracy, a robust film scene, historic universities, and excellent music, offers ample opportunities for considering leadership in a global context. Students will explore the National History Museum, the National Museum of the Arts, and the Spirit Museum. We will take a trip outside of the city to explore the university town of Uppsala, which is home to Sweden’s oldest university, Uppsala University (founded in 1477). And, once back in Stockholm, we will undertake a kayak exploration of Stockholm’s archipelago, see an opera performance at the Royal Opera, take tours of the old city, and learn about Sweden’s leadership in the Nordic countries, in the European Union, and on the global stage.

We have not yet penciled in a destination for the 2027 trip. Possible options include Seoul, South Korea, Berlin, Germany, Mumbai, India, Buenos Aires, Argentina, and Istanbul, Turkey. We plan to announce the location for this trip to our Reagan Fellows in 2026.

Yes! We strongly encourage Reagan Fellows to secure mentorship placements abroad. Students have recently completed mentorships in London and Costa Rica, for example. To learn more about the mentorship process, please click here.
