Program Description
The program leading to the MFA in creative writing at The University of Alabama is a studio/academic course of study, designed to accommodate diverse student and faculty interests. Imaginative writers enroll in workshops, forms courses, and literature classes, gaining exposure to a broad range of models and experimenting with a variety of strategies and forms. Guided development of each writer's talents culminates in a complete, carefully conceived thesis, typically a book-length manuscript.
The program can be completed in three years, but every admitted student is given the option to stay for a fourth year. Every student admitted to the program is guaranteed full financial support, including an assistantship, tuition remission, and health insurance, for up to four years.
