The WGHV application process kicks off quickly when the semester begins!
To apply for a Fall 2026 project, we ask that you fill out a short form explaining your background and why you are interested in your preferred projects.
If you are applying to be a Project Leader, the WGHV Leadership team will conduct interviews early in the fall semester. These interviews will be on campus or on Zoom.
Once Project Leaders are finalized, they will interview prospective team members and select their teams.
We hope to have all teams finalized by Friday, September 25, 2026. -
