My understanding is that the PhD involves producing some creative work, but most of the program is geared towards academic analysis of creative writing. It does improve your chances for landing a university teaching position, but not as much as a published book does. Edited February 7, 2023 by feralgrad. Blaze.

Location:Roanoke, Virginia. Program:MFA in Poetry. Posted February 16, 2023. Hey folks! Longtime lurker but new member. Curious to see if anyone has heard back from University of Arizona, Oregon State, Vanderbilt, or West Virginia University. I'm starting to get nervous, haha.
