Editing Bread Loaf Writers' Conference (section)

==Admission==
According to ''[[Seven Days (newspaper)|Seven Days]]'', the likelihood of general admission to Bread Loaf (in 2005) stood at about 17&nbsp;percent, given a total applicant pool of 1,500. Of those accepted, 170&nbsp;students pay full fare. These people are called Contributors (because they contribute to the workshops with their writing). ''The New Yorker'' wrote that the most coveted scholarships to Bread Loaf are the 25 "Waiterships", in which promising writers earn their keep by serving three meals a day to the paying guests. Besides the Waiterships, applicants who have been published can try for tuition scholarships, and those with a published book can become Bread Loaf Teaching Fellows. Waiters, Tuition Scholars, and Fellows are given the opportunity to give public readings.<ref>[http://www.middlebury.edu/academics/blwc/admissions/ Middlebury College > Bread Loaf Writer's Conference > Admissions] {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090718203103/http://www.middlebury.edu/academics/blwc/admissions/ |date=July 18, 2009 }}</ref>
