“Our student attended the Institute last year and it changed his life, without a doubt. You run the best summer program for young writers that I am aware of in the country.” —Creative writing teacher, California
English teachers, high school principals, and guidance counselors are invited to nominate up to three outstanding students to apply for regular admission to the Institute or, in the case of need, to apply for an Institute scholarship. Nominations are not a guarantee of acceptance to the Institute, but nominees’ applications both for regular admission and for scholarships will be given special consideration.
Once we receive your nomination, we will send you a nomination letter to give to your student(s) along with program and application information. We will not contact your students directly until they have chosen to apply to the Institute.
Nominating students for the Institute is a fantastic way to acknowledge and support young writers. We recognize and thank teachers who nominate students by sending a letter of recognition to their principals and by listing their names and schools on this site’s “Participating Teachers & Schools” page.
