Application

Any undergraduate student at a US institution is invited to apply to attend an APS CUWiP. Apply to the site location determined by your region (as illustrated in the image below). The CUWiP at the University of Oregon services the Northwest region including the states of Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, and northern California (including San Jose, San Francisco, and all areas north).

Students in Canada are encouraged to apply to the Canadian CUWiP at Queens University, Kingston, Ontario.

Note that there is a $45 registration fee that will be due upon registration. For more information, see the "Application and Registration" section of the FAQ tab.
