Program description: This new and distinctive program offers intimate classes; the opportunity to pursue both creative and critical writing; close mentorship by renowned faculty in poetry, fiction, and creative nonfiction; and three fully supported years in which to grow as writers and complete a book-length creative project. Our curriculum gives students time to deepen both their creative writing and their study of literature.
Students will receive full financial support for three academic years and two summers.
Both degrees—the MFA in Creative Writing and the MA in English—are awarded simultaneously at graduation.
