What to Expect

Overview PDF

Have you been anxiously awaiting your O.W.L. letter? Do strange things tend to happen when you’re around?

O.W.L. Camp is your chance to geek out with other Harry Potter fans and attend magical wizarding school for a day, circa 2023. Be prepared to experiment, learn, connect, play, and create.

Submit your application to discover if you are a Muggle-born Witch or Wizard. Selected students will receive an O.W.L. letter with instructions for finalizing the application. Failure to finalize the application by May 31 will void your O.W.L. Camp acceptance.

Upon arrival at O.W.L. Camp, you will be invited through platform 9 ¾, visit the Trolley cart, and exit onto the school grounds. You will be sorted into your class, and you will stay with your class throughout the day. Classes may include topics such as Potions, Magizoology, Astronomy, etc. You will have opportunities to win or lose class points, interact with characters, and meet new friends.

We solemnly swear you won’t forget your day at O.W.L. Camp!
