Snorri Programs

Snorri Þorfinnsson was the first ever North American born of Icelandic decent. The Snorri Program is named in his honour.

The Snorri Program is offered to Canadians and Americans between the ages 20-30 with Icelandic heritage. Approximately 12 to 16 applicants are selected yearly for each of the Snorri programs by the Snorri Foundation.
