Review Title:

Simply the best

Full Review of the Program:

I would not be a published novelist without Vermont College's MFA program in Writing for Children and Young Adults. At Vermont, you get to work on your writing with the guidance of literary rockstars. You will work hard, but if you're like me, it won't even feel like work becuase you'll be so thrilled by the progress you're making.

Advice to Prospective Students:

Apply! If you get accepted, decide if you want to start in the summer residency and have 3 summers (and 2 winters) or the other way around. I actually prefer the winter residencies despite the snow!
