Application PROCESS

How to apply?

Applications for ESPR 2024 will open in Spring. You can apply now to our Spring camps.

Throughout the application process, we ask all applicants to commit to using only their own creativity and intellect, without seeking external help or online resources.

What does the application process look like?

  • Apart from basic questions about you, the application form consists of a puzzle and a couple of open ended questions. We recommend submitting whatever answer to the puzzle question you have after thinking about it for an hour. We also encourage you to not spend more than two hours on the open ended questions. However if you want to spend more time on the form, you can.

    The first deadline (April 16th) has passed; now we are reviewing applications on a rolling basis at least by Sunday, April 30th. We strongly recommend applying now for a higher chance of acceptance.

    The application form is the same for as for our other camp, PAIR, you can apply to only one of them or both,

  • By the end of April, we’ll invite a fraction of applicants to the second stage, which will consist of a couple of tasks in total for about two hours. We hope we created tasks which will be both fun to work on and interesting in different ways.

    Those who applied after April 16th will receive a decision by mid-May.

  • Successful applicants will be invited for an online interview in which we would talk more about you and your interests and the camp. We expect to announce the final decisions by mid June. You can indicate in the application form if you need an earlier decision.
