We want to know your story.
Students ages 15 - 18: send us one document with up to five pages of your work—your poems, a short story, a scene or multiple scenes, the article you wrote for your student newspaper, even your novel!
- Early Admission: MON, APR 1
- Final Admission: TUES, MAY 28
Please reach out to us with questions.
- Enter your contact information (name, telephone number and email) in the Cover Letter field, as well as a short paragraph on why you’d like to spend three weeks writing with us.
- If you're sending prose, double-space your submission.
- If you're sending poetry, no more than one poem per page, please.
- You'll need to open a Submittable account if you don't have one already. (They're free!)
