Apply

There are two periods for applying to will: over the summer and once you arrive on campus in the fall. Applying over the summer provides the advantage of an expedited “early admission” process. Summer applications are due by August 1; decisions will be made before the start of classes. Fall applications are due by Oct. 1; these applicants will be notified in mid-October.

All accepted applicants are required to attend an on-campus retreat (free of charge) to orient you to will and to build community.
