Antioch University MFA in Creative Writing

The MFA in Creative Writing at Antioch University is a low-residency program based in Los Angeles that pairs two hybrid residencies a year, in June and December, with five-month online project periods guided by a faculty mentor. Students enter in one genre, from fiction and poetry to screenwriting, writing for young people and literary translation, and do field study with the journal Lunch Ticket or the podcast LitCit, within a program that emphasizes social justice.

Tuition is about $49,457 over four semesters before fees. Merit awards include the $6,000 President's Merit Scholarship and several $10,000 scholarships each cycle. Incoming class: 22.
