Application Process for Intensives

 

Application Process for Intensives

Applications may be submitted 12 months prior to each intensive.
Deadlines are six months prior to each intensive start date. Openings may still be available so we encourage students to still apply if they have missed the deadline.

  • Applicants will be notified about acceptance one week after the deadline.

  • If benches are still available after the deadline, subsequent applications will be reviewed on the first of every month until the start of the course.

  • If the class is full or if your application is not accepted, you will be placed on the waitlist


Application Deadlines

If you want to be among the first considered, apply before these dates. We always accept applications after these dates if benches are available or if you would like to be on the waitlist.
