Supported by the guidance of experienced authors and instructors, young writers hone their craft in a collaborative environment. Our unique program lets young writers from around the world form and sustain literary friendships that can last a lifetime. 

There are three levels of the Emerging Writers Institute: 5th-6th7th-9th and 10th-12th.

Note: In order to attend the EWI, students must demonstrate their potential as writers by submitting a creative writing sample in any of the four major areas of focus.
