Creative Writing Master of Fine Arts

The University of Wyoming's Creative Writing MFA program is an intensive two-year studio degree in poetry, fiction, or creative nonfiction. Special features include a flexible curriculum, cross-genre workshops, opportunities for interdisciplinary study, and our Eminent Writers in Residence program, which brings distinguished authors to campus to work closely with our students. This year, our Eminent Writers are Edward P. Jones, Claudia Rankine, and Philip Gourevitch; in 2010-2011, we'll be joined by Rattawut Lapcharoensap, Jan Zwicky, Robert Bringhurst, and Rebecca Solnit. We have a deeply committed faculty, a lively visiting writers series, an incomparable natural setting, and excellent funding for students, including teaching assistantships with light teaching loads, full tuition waivers, summer stipends, and support for travel and publication. The UW MFA is a small program with a big reach.

P&W lists the MFA at Wyoming as a top 25 program in nonfiction, a top 20 program in funding, and a top 50 program in selectivity.
