Naropa University Low-Residency MFA Writing Program
Program Description
Naropa University's Jack Kerouac School of Disembodied Poetics offers two MFA degrees: the residency-based MFA in Writing & Poetics with a concentration in Poetry, Prose or Translation, and the low-residency MFA in Creative Writing.
The online Creative Writing degree requires 49 total credit hours, a combination of online workshops, online literature seminars, online elective studies, contemplative practice, summer residence at the Summer Writing Program and at-home manuscript.
Literature seminars focus on the works of particular authors, literary history and culture, and contemporary trends in literary theory. The final semester is spent on a final creative manuscript and thesis. Students in the online MFA program take courses in both poetry and prose. Prospective students who wish to devote themselves exclusively to a concentration in one or the other genre are urged to apply to the in-residency MFA in Writing and Poetics program.
