Fiction: Stephanie Feldman, Joshua Isard, Tracey Levine, Eric Smith
The program offers partial funding, along with graduate assistantships and financial aid. Accepted students may apply for teaching assistantship positions.
All students turn in a complete, book-length manuscript for their thesis at the end of the program. Students attend three weeklong residencies, in August and January at the Arcadia University campus in Glenside, Pennsylvania; and in July in Edinburgh, Scotland. The program hosts readings and discussions with writers and publishers.
The priority application deadline is March 1; admissions are made on a rolling basis thereafter as space allows.
The course sequence for MFA students can be found on the program’s website.
