Thank you for your interest in applying to join EVE University. Please note that in order to process the large number of applications we receive, EVE University uses its own recruitment tool to track applications. This page explains the process for joining the Uni. Please read it carefully.
 
  
==An overview of the application process==
+
If you are looking to join EVE University, please follow the procedure below.
  
If you are a new or existing player looking to join EVE University, please follow the process below.  For players already in EVE University and looking to change or add a character to the corporation, please check out the [[Additional_Characters|Additional Character]] pages.
+
If you are a member already and want to add another character to the corporation, please check out [[User:Unstable_unit/Sandbox#Adding_Additional_Characters|Adding Additional Characters]] or [[User:Unstable_unit/Sandbox#Adding_Alt_Characters_that_are_on_different_accounts|Adding Alt Characters that are on different accounts.]]
  
Our application process is a multi-stage process, as below:
+
==An overview of the Application process==
  
# First you will need to register for an account on our recruitment tool. Instructions for this are below.
 
# Next you will use the link at the bottom of this page to go to our actual application. During the application we will ask you to fill out a short questionnaire.
 
# You will then need to wait for your application to be reviewed by one of our [[Intake & Progression Department| Intake Officers]]. While you are waiting we will ask you to set up your overview and install Mumble (our voice communications software).
 
# When an Intake Officer has reviewed your application they will send you a mail in-game with the next steps. If you have been approved for the next stage of the process this mail will contain instructions what to do next.  Some applicants will have instructions on how to join without an interview, but others will need to be interviewed before getting accepted to corp.  The mail will give instructions on whichever process is next.  It normally takes a couple of days to receive a mail.
 
# If you are asked to interview, when you are in-game and have time for an interview you can then join the interview queue. When one of our Intake Officers is available they will call you for an interview. The actual interview normally takes 10 - 15 minutes, but bear in mind that it may take a few days to be called for an interview. You will only be called for an interview if you are online and in the interview queue, so just join the queue when you would be playing the game anyway.
 
# During the interview the Intake Officer will bring you into EVE University (if you're accepted) and set up your access so you can get started.

Joining when EVE University is at war

As a large group with lots of inexperienced players, EVE University can seem an attractive target. Some corporations declare war on EVE University in order to try to get easy kills on their killboard.

Sometimes we also have mutual wars for training our members and/or for fun. War and PVP combat is an important part of EVE Online which we want our members to be prepared for and therefore it is a good training scenario.

EVE University rarely declares war on other corporations, but will react swiftly when aggressed. We strive to end 'unfriendly' wars quickly, but it is impossible for us to avoid being eligible for war entirely.

How can you tell if EVE University is at war?

To check whether EVE University is currently at war, search for Ivy League (the Alliance EVE University belongs to) under the 'People and Places' tab in game.

Then right click on Ivy League and select “Show info”.

This will bring up a profile of information on Ivy League as below. Select the “War history” tab and look at the top of the list for any active or pending wars.

Eve University is rarely at war but it can still happen.

In the unlikely event that we are in an active warwhen you join, check out How to Avoid Losses to War Targets and Wartime Operations in EVE University before accepting the Corporation Invitation.

When we are at war, you will see a crossed swords icon on the top left of your screen.
