Have you thought about enrolling in a Creative Writing MFA program, but feel intimidated by the application process? Do you fret about how to make your application rise to the top in a stack of fierce competitors? How can you avoid the most common pitfalls?
You know how competitive these programs are and how exacting the admissions requirements can be. Learn how to curate a polished, professional, impactful application package that's designed to impress admission committees. In this workshop learn:
- how to avoid the blunders and omissions that many fellow applicants will make
- how to create a literary resume that adheres to professional standards
- the variations among program types (which format is right for you?)
- what to include in the dreaded personal statement–and what to leave out
- sources of funding support
Though this class is geared for people thinking about or planning to apply to an MFA program in fiction, creative nonfiction, or poetry, playwrights and screenwriters are also welcome. Enrollment for this hands-on workshop is limited.
