Interested in the entertainment industry? Applications are OPEN for the Harvardwood 101 January 2026 Program.
Harvardwood is an alumni shared interest group open to the broader Harvard community, including students, interested in the arts and entertainment. The Harvardwood 101 career exploration program is an entertainment “bootcamp” week taking place in Los Angeles. Participating companies in recent years include Anonymous Content, Amazon Studios, BMG Music Group, CAA, HBO/Max, Echo Lake, Rideback, Spotify, UTA, and more! An OPTIONAL two week virtual or in-person Winternship experience will take place after the bookcamp.
To apply for Harvardwood101, you must be:
- A current student of Harvard College. Due to limited space, there is a preference for Juniors and Seniors for the in-person Harvardwood101 Bootcamp.
- A dues-current Full Member of Harvardwood*
- Join Harvardwood here: https://www.harvardwood.org/membership-hub
- *Harvard College students who receive financial aid may apply to the 101 bootcamp before becoming a Harvardwood member.
- In good standing with your Proctor or House Resident Tutor
If accepted, the program fee is $1500. All Harvard College students who currently receive financial aid are eligible to receive funding from the Mignone Center for Career Success (MCS) for the Harvardwood 101 Boot Camp program fee (which includes housing), a $600 travel stipend, and one year of Harvardwood membership. Students who are offered and opt into an in-person Winternship experience will need to do so at their own expense; there will be no University resources available to support travel, accommodations, food, or other living expenses during the program. There will be a limited number of homestay opportunities available through Harvardwood (typically guest rooms in the homes of alumni), based on need and given out via lottery.
