University of Alabama, Tuscaloosa MFA in Creative Writing

The MFA in Creative Writing at the University of Alabama is a 48-hour studio and academic program that can be finished in three years, with every student guaranteed support for a fourth. Students may take workshops in any genre, teach after their first year, and edit the Black Warrior Review, which graduate students run entirely. A visiting writers series, an MFA reading series and the Prison Arts Program round out the community.

All admitted MFA students receive full financial support for up to four years, although the degree can be completed in three. Assistantships include a nine-month stipend and payment of up to 15 graduate credit hours of tuition.
