This video was made for me. It’s been really difficult trying to get back into MFA applications after declining [a good] one last year (funding reasons). But this gave me some vim so thank you very much!

Thank you so much for sharing!!! This video was so insightful. I am a bit confused about one of the requirements for the IOWA’s writers workshop…. It says we have to mail physical copies of our application as opposed to submitting online, how did you get past this requirement?

I’m in the science field. I have always had a desire to write professionally. I have written private fiction works with themes around the slave trade but never published them anywhere. Do you think I stand any chance in applying for an MFA?
@AudreyOB
@AudreyOB Месяц назад
Oh definitely! It's great that you have experience. Like I said, I'd recommend publishing something if you can, just for your credentials. However I know people in the program who didn't even have any prior publications.

How many mfa programmes would you recommend applying to? I feel like it probably doesnt make sense to send in loads of applications…?
@AudreyOB

Great question. From speaking with others, it seems 3-5 might be a good average. People definitely do more though. I personally applied to only Iowa because I only had money for one application fee LOL
