Boston University Creative Writing Summer

Students must submit a sample of their creative work to the course instructor or the Creative Writing administrator before the start of classes.Because admission to any of the advanced courses is not guaranteed, we recommend that you register for 202 prior to submitting a portfolio for one of the advanced writing classes.EN 202 is not a prerequisite for any of the advanced writing classes, though we do recommend it to students who wish to pursue further creative work in the program.

Small class sizes ensure ample attention from experienced college instructors as you meet the challenges of college-level study.

Each seminar culminates in a final class presentation.

Introduction to Creative Writing Advanced Undergraduate Creative Writing Courses Concentration in Creative Writing Graduate Courses The Creative Writing Program offers eight sections of Introduction to Creative Writing during the fall and spring semesters; two additional courses are offered each semester through Metropolitan College.

Two sections of EN 202 are also offered during each summer session.

The program concludes with a “writers showcase,” in which students share one of their own pieces with their peers and other members of the BU community.
