Why take the 4-Year BA in Creative Writing?
The 4-Year BA in Creative Writing is designed to provide a comprehensive, coherent program of study that encompasses both the reading and the writing of literature. It gives students the opportunity to concentrate on their fiction or poetry in a serious, sustained way; to develop the skills and discipline needed to carry a project through to completion; and to receive regular feedback, both from the instructors and from other writers in the program. The BA in Creative Writing also gives students the opportunity to prepare for further study in the field (for example, to put together a portfolio for application to a Creative MA program). It’s also good preparation for careers in writing, editing, publishing, and other areas in the literary arts.
