Forge Application Process

We are currently accepting applications for the 2010-2011 Forge Class. We are excited that you are interested in applying and look forward to receiving your application!

Our application season for this year runs from January 1 – May 1, 2010 or until the class is full. Class size for next year will be 24 students. If you would like to submit an application for early acceptance, we need your application by February 15th. Those who meet the early application deadline can expect notification on or around March 1, 2010.

We realize that the Forge may not be your only option for the upcoming year. We desire for this application process to be confirming for you just as much as it is for us. So, even if you aren't sure that the Forge is something you will be able to do this next year, we'd still love to see an application from you!

Step 1: Print out this application (PDF 1.3MB)
Step 2: Fill out all parts of the application
(Includes: Photograph, 4 personal references, and $20 application fee)
Step 3: Mail completed application as soon as possible to:

When we receive your application in full, we will contact you by email or phone and set up a casual phone interview. For applicants who have not worked at Pine Cove in the past, we require either a face to face interview or Skype video call after your application has been submitted.

If you have further questions about the application process or the program itself, please contact us.
