About the MFA in Writing Program

We offer a full-immersion teaching fellowship—the first of its kind in the country for a low-residency MFA—and a dual-genre course of study: learn about them below. Complete details about the structure and requirements of the program can be found under the Resources tab. Our graduates publish in top-tier journals, win awards, and publish books—read about their accomplishments in our Publication News.
