Applications for this summer's workshop were due on March 20th (postmark date). Acceptance letters were mailed out to Young Writers the week of April 17th. Confirmation from those writers receiving acceptance letters, accompanied by a tuition deposit, should be postmarked by May 3rd.

While the due date for applications has already passed, we encourage anyone who is interested in participating in the workshop to submit an application. In order to be considered for the Workshop, we must have a complete application on file. While we cannot guarantee placement at this point, we are often able to fill spots in our program late into the process. There is a link to Application Information located at the bottom of this page.

Currently, there are waiting lists for both sessions. Once we process all of the confirmation responses, we will begin filling spots from the waiting lists. Again, confirmation responses are to be postmarked by May 3rd, meaning that filling any spots from the waiting lists will probably not begin until the week of May 8th.
