Skyrim: How to join the College of Winterhold Mages Guild

April 2023 · 2 minute read

One little aptitude test for a whole lot of benefits. It's a no brainer.

The Mages Guild in Skyrim takes the form of the College of Winterhold, and they've got one of the coolest faction bases in the land of Skyrim. The College is a massive castle-like structure up in the mountains. It looks super cool, as you can see.

Perhaps you're playing in VR, and want to immerse yourself in it, or you're appreciating it on the Switch's portable screen - if you're new to Skyrim, the College of Winterhold is definitely worth checking out.

Because their base is so obvious, the College is actually pretty easy to find and surprisingly joining it actually quite easy.

Many players will find themselves joining the College as part of the main quest in the game, but since this is optional it's still worth pointing out how to go about it for those who miss the story beat entirely.
