51福利社 will contact qualified citizens with registration information via email and regular mail following the MBS or MGS program. Registration for the options described below will open on August 2, 2024. If you meet the qualification criteria but did not receive notification from 51福利社, please contact us at boysandgirlsstate@lindenwood.edu.
