CofC MFA in Creative Writing

CofC MFA in Creative Writing Coming in Fall 2016, the College of Charleston will offer an MFA in Creative Writing. (SACSSOC approval pending). More info coming soon.

For years, The College of Charleston has been home not only to a cadre of nationally and internationally recognized writing faculty—Gary Jackson, Emily Rosko, and Anthony Varallo—but also to one of the country’s premiere literary journals, Crazyhorse, published since 1960 and consistently ranked among the top publishing venues in the nation. The backbone of this intimate two-year program of only t

welve students annually (six in fiction and six in poetry) will be workshops taught by writing faculty in the two genres, as well as training in the history and traditions associated with writing, theoretical and formal approaches to the craft, and intensive peer and faculty feedback. In addition, the program will offer opportunities to assist in the production of Crazyhorse. What sets our program apart is that the degree will feature separate Studio and Arts Management tracks; students can choose a course of study that takes place solely within the graduate English program, or elect to take courses in the College’s graduate program in Arts Management, where emphasis will be placed on the management, organization, decision-making, and problem-solving skills that will prepare them for jobs within the creative economy. Stay tuned—we’ll have more on the program soon, but we wanted to get this breaking news out to you: an MFA at the College of Charleston is on its way.
