Applications should include:
1. Up to five pages of writing samples
2. A letter of intent for your time in residency
3. Curriculum vitae
4. Two written references

All expenses (full room and board) of Hillholm residents are supported by endowed scholarship. The residents’ only expenses include beverages purchased in the Lounge; Healing Arts services selected by each resident, if any; laundry services; and gratuities.
