Still waiting for your Hogwarts acceptance letter? Here it comes!

by · November 25, 2011

Beginning June 1, 2012, witches and wizards from all over the world will be able to register for courses at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry…online. You can see it right here at myHogwarts.co.uk A team of over 100 volunteers have come together to create the perfect, fan-powered companion to J.K. Rowling’s Pottermore – and it’s entirely free.

As a first year, you will be enrolled in seven required courses over the span of two semesters: Herbology, D.A.D.A., Transfiguration, Charms, Potions, History of Magic and Astronomy. Each course will be spread over nine week’s in which you’ll learn new material each and every week.

myHogwarts will allow you to socialize in various common rooms and the Great Hall. You will have the chance to earn House Points, meet fellow students, add and message friends, create study groups, and learn – in depth – about Hogwarts subjects right from the comfort of your own home in this exclusive online experience.

Students will get eTextbooks such as One Thousand Magical Herbs and Fungi and The Dark Forces, as well as a full Hogwarts library – an always-growing portion of myHogwarts where fans can write and submit book proposals to our team and get their work published in the Hogwarts library.

The first registration period is open from June 1 to August 12, 2012, which you can view from the 2012-2013 Academic Calendar. You can read more about it, or sign up to be notified when the registration period is open, or follow them on Facebook, Twitter or Tumblr.

Over 15,000 first years are already ready to attend myHogwarts. Will you be on the platform?
