-#### Verification for Open Source program

-- [OSI-approved license overview](#screenshot-1-license-overview)
-- [OSI-approved license file](#screenshot-2-license-file)
-- [Publicly visible settings](#screenshot-3-publicly-visible-settings)
-##### OSI-approved license
-You must apply an [OSI-approved license](https://opensource.org/licenses/) to each project in your group before you can be verified.
-Add the license to the LICENSE file so that it shows up in the overview section of the project. This allows contributors to see it at a glance.
-It's best to copy and paste the entire license into the file in its original form. GitLab defaults to **All rights reserved** if no license file is mentioned.
-You must ensure that you add the correct license to each project within your group.
-After you ensure that you are using OSI-approved licenses for your projects, you can take your screenshots.
+#### License requirements for GitLab for Open Source Program members
+GitLab for Open Source Program benefits apply to an entire GitLab namespace. To qualify for the GitLab for Open Source Program, **all projects in an applicant's namespace** must carry an [OSI-approved license](https://opensource.org/licenses/).
+To add a license: 
+1. On the top bar, select **Menu > Projects** and find your project. 
+1. On the overview page, select **Add LICENSE**. If the license you want is not available as a license template, manually copy the entire, unaltered [text of your chosen license](https://opensource.org/licenses/alphabetical) into the `LICENSE` file. Note that GitLab defaults to **All rights reserved** if users do not perform this action.
+Applicants must add the correct license to each project in their respective groups or namespaces When you're sure you're using OSI-approved licenses for your projects, you can take your screenshots.
+#### Verification for Open Source Program
+As part of the [application verification process](https://about.gitlab.com/solutions/open-source/join/), you must upload **three screenshots**:
+- [OSI-approved license overview](#screenshot-1-license-overview)
+- [OSI-approved license contents](#screenshot-2-license-contents)
+- [Publicly visible settings](#screenshot-3-publicly-visible-settings)
+
+Benefits of the GitLab Open Source Program apply to all projects in a GitLab namespace. All projects in an eligible namespace must meet program requirements. However, if you submit materials for **one project** in your namespace, the open source program team uses that project to verify the contents of the entire namespace you use when applying to the program.

-    upper-left of the screenshot.

 NOTE:
-From time to time, GitLab allows exceptions. One or two projects within a group can be private if there is a legitimate need for it, for example,
-if a project holds sensitive data. Email `opensource@gitlab.com` with details of your use case to request written permission for exceptions.
+Exceptions to this public visibility requirement apply in select circumstances (for example, in cases where a project may hold sensitive data). Email `opensource@gitlab.com` with details of your use case to request written permission for exceptions.
