Seasonal admissions readers are expected to commit to 15 - 19 hours per week during Regular Decision (January 5 through the second week of March 2026). Readers will conduct a comprehensive evaluation of an average of 2.5 -3 applications per hour. There may be an occasional opportunity to work additional hours. Training and work will be conducted remotely. Physical demands include prolonged periods of time reading from a computer screen and typing on a keyboard.

All admissions applications are read online. Candidates must have a recent computer (preferably fewer than five years old) with a reliable, high-speed internet connection and must have access to a private, secure location in which to work.
