Colorado State University MFA in Creative Writing

The MFA in Creative Writing at Colorado State University is a three-year program in fiction, poetry, and creative nonfiction, with an option for a dual-genre thesis. Students can intern with the Center for Literary Publishing and Colorado Review, and most teach a section of Beginning Creative Writing in their third year. The program emphasizes close mentoring and an interest in stories from marginalized communities.

Competitive graduate teaching assistantships are the main funding, with a tuition waiver and a monthly stipend over the nine-month year; other applicants are considered for fellowships. Residents of WICHE states may qualify for in-state tuition. Incoming class: 9-15.
