It’s free to get started with AmeriCamp! All you need to do to Register your interest is click APPLY NOW and let us know why you want to go to Camp! A member of our team will reach out to answer any questions you may have about the program before you Secure Your Spot!

You only need to pay a £49 deposit to secure your spot with AmeriCamp! Once this is paid you will be given access to the AmeriCamp application portal where you can get your journey to Camp started!

This deposit is refundable prior to your interview and up to 2 weeks after you have paid - so what do you have to lose?

In the first stage of your application you tell us about your skills, experience and motivations for going to camp!

This application will be reviewed by the AmeriCamp team, who will reach out to help you make your application the best it can be!

Once Stage 1 is complete you can book your virtual AmeriCamp Interview with one of our amazing Brand Ambassadors!

This will be an opportunity for us to get to know you better so we can tell our Camps how great you are!

Your second fee installment will allow you to go live to Camps on our placement system!

This is a platform where we will match you up with Camps we think would be perfect for you - based on your skills and preferences!

Your program fees include: processing of your application, medical insurance coverage for your entire time in the US, and your full camp experience including food, accommodation and a Summer of Non-stop Fun!

You will pay an add-on fee on your portal that is sent to our DBS service so that you can apply for a Police Background Check!

We are only able to accept a DBS that has been applied for through our system and so that we can ensure it is countersigned by ourselves and to avoid falsification.

Our DBS application process is quick and easy! When completed you will be sent a physical certificate in the post in about 2 - 4 weeks. We encourage all applicants to apply for this early enough to allow for delays as we have seen the DBS process take up 10 weeks!

All applicants must get the AmeriCamp Health History Form completed by their registered GP for Health & Safety and Insurance purposes!

Some GP surgery's will charge a small fee for completion of this form but it can totally vary depending on their policy!

Your final program fee will be paid once you are hired to confirm your placement and allow AmeriCamp to process your Visa documentation!

Once this is paid we will issue your DS-2019 form, which confirms your J-1 Visa sponsorship and makes you eligible to apply for a Visa.

You will pay this fee to your local US embassy in order to book a Visa interview appointment! All J-1 Visa applicants must visit the embassy in person for a short and simple interview process to confirm your Visa!

Following this appointment, the embassy will hold on to your passport to print the Visa inside and post it back to you in 5 - 10 working days!

Ahead of your departure to Camp you will come along to one of our in-person Orientations - this will be a presentation on all the essential information you need for your time in the US.

This will include details of: your Visa, your Insurance, Emergency Contacts and learning more about what to expect from Camp life!

It’s time to book your flights so you can head out to Camp! We allow all our applicants to book their own flights independently so they can find the best time, price and airline for them!

We recommend waiting until you have obtained your Visa! Your Camp will provide travel information, including which airport to fly into and the date to arrive. Try using flight comparison sites to find the best deal or book directly with your preferred airline!
