Oregon State University–Cascades MFA in Creative Writing

The MFA in Writing at Oregon State University-Cascades in Bend is a two-year, low-residency program that pairs remote coursework and one-on-one mentoring with two ten-day residencies each year. Its critical studies courses center on difference, power, and privilege, and students take on community engagement and public-facing literary work. The program also draws on the landscape and communities of central Oregon.

No guaranteed funding package or standard stipend is advertised for the Cascades low-residency program. Do not confuse it with OSU Corvallis's separate, fully funded, high-residency MFA in Creative Writing.

Program site: osucascades.edu/academics/mfa. Please confirm the details there before you apply.
