Creative Writing Concentration

"And for heaven's sake, publish nothing before you are thirty."

- Virginia Woolf, "A Letter to a Young Poet" (1932)

Requirements

To major in English with a CONCENTRATION IN CREATIVE WRITING (CW), all requirements for the English major must be met.

In addition, students must take EH 200, EH 391, EH 395, at least one 400-level CW course (EH 483, EH 485, EH 487, or EH 497), and one additional CW course.  The five courses required for a Concentration in Creative Writing simultaneously count towards the English major's six-course elective requirement.
