Share your story with the world by earning your MFA from a top-ranked creative writing program.

At Wilkes, we focus on the craft and business of writing. Industry feedback is an incredible benefit to aspiring writers. That is why each creative thesis is read and evaluated by a working agent, editor, publisher or producer. These outside readers provide detailed notes about your work and review their feedback during a one-on-one meeting. It's what makes Wilkes unique and propels our graduates to writing success.
