We encourage you to apply online via the Common Application website. If you are unable to apply online, please download the Common Application and the Mount Holyoke Common Application Supplement or request a paper copy from the Office of Admission. The application fee is waived if you apply online; be sure to enclose the $60 application fee for the downloaded or paper application.
Steps in applying:

- Submit the Mount Holyoke Common Application Supplement, which includes a writing section.
- Give the school report and mid-year school report to your high school college counselor. Ask her or him to send the school report with your current transcript by the application deadline and the mid-year report by February 15, preferably.
- Give teacher evaluation forms to two teachers who know you best and can tell us about your talents and strengths; be sure to provide teachers with a stamped envelope addressed to Office of Admission.
