This title in other editionsThe Creative Writing MFA Handbook: A Guide for Prospective Graduate Studentsby Tom Kealey
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Revised and Updated The Creative Writing MFA Handbook guides prospective graduate students through the difficult process of researching, applying to, and choosing graduate schools in creative writing. The handbook includes profiles of fifty creative writing programs, guidance through the application process, advice from current professors and students including George Saunders, Aimee Bender, Tracy K. Smith, and Geoffrey Wolff, and the most comprehensive listings of graduate writing programs in and outside the United States. The handbook also includes special sections about Low-Residency writing programs, Ph.D. programs, publishing in literary journals, and workshop and teaching advice. In a remarkably concise, user-friendly fashion, The Creative Writing MFA Handbook answers as many questions as possible, and is packed with information, advice, and experience. This second edition updates and builds upon the first edition, which was published in 2005 to great acclaim and contains a vastly expanded ranking of current creative writing programs. Book News Annotation:This handbook for prospective MFA students in creative writing
provides information on writing programs, their details, components,
and requirements. Included are interviews and answers to questions by
program directors, professors, graduates, and students, advice on the

teaching, writing workshops, publishing in literary magazines, and
what to do after the degree. New to this edition are chapters
profiling and ranking programs, and discussing low-residency and PhD
programs. The listings formerly at the back of the book have been
omitted and placed online.
