Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing

Oregon State University - INTO USA

Oregon State University has a long tradition of excellence in producing and teaching creative writing, going all the way back to the 1950s when the future distinguished novelist William Kittredge was a student here, and Bernard Malamud won a National Book Award while teaching in the English Department. This is a distinguished past, but our present is even more remarkable. Creative Writing has never been more vital or successful at OSU than it is right now, with a nationally competitive pool of applicants in fiction, poetry, and creative non-fiction, full funding for all our students through GTA positions, with full tuition waiver, a vibrant Visiting Writers Series, and the new Stone Award for Lifetime Literary Achievement. For information on the high-residency program and its GTA fellowships, please contact the SWLF main office at swlf.mainoffice@oregonstate.edu, call 541-737-3244, or visit their website. A low-residency variant of the program is also available on the OSU-Cascades campus in Bend, Oregon.
