The University of Iowa<\/span>: Wow, a creative writer’s (me) dream. This University is home to the Writer’s Workshop. It is based in Iowa City, Iowa- it looks lovely. If you are a fan of snow, then i think you’ll love it in the winter time. Continuing, the University of Iowa has an (this is one degree) English and Creative Writing BA degree (woo!). Not to mention, it continues with a MFA if you wanted that. Those are two things that I want, so this is why it is at the first of my list. So let’s look at the numbers: It looks like the ACT scores are between 22-29. The average g.p.a is 3.76. You also need to have an Regent Admission Index score of 255 or higher (for out-of-state). By the way, their deadline is May 1st for the fall semester (just saying).\u00a0 Here’s a link for costs:\u00a0\u00a0https:\/\/www.admissions.uiowa.edu\/finances\/estimated-costs-attendance<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

New York University<\/span>: If you’re into big cities, then I think you’ll like this University. The best news is: They have a creative writing program. But wait, there’s more! They also have a MFA in creative writing. The bad news is there is a low acceptance rate. You will most likely need at 3.7 gpa, and above a 29 act. So the stakes are high, and they are very selective. Don’t forget to take the writing section of the ACT\/SAT (it’s apart of the admissions). Here’s the link for costs:\u00a0https:\/\/www.nyu.edu\/students\/student-information-and-resources\/bills-payments-and-refunds\/tuition-and-fee-rates.html<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Savannah College of Art and Design: <\/span>Also known as SCAD, this college is based in Savannah, Georgia. It offers a B.F.A in Creative Writing (which is fantastic). Continuing, you can also get your M.F.A in writing there. It has an act score of 21-27, and the acceptance rate is about 72%. Here’s the costs:\u00a0https:\/\/www.scad.edu\/admission\/tuition-and-fees<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

So here’s the thing, there are tons of college’s, but I think the most important thing you can do to filter out college’s is to visit them. You could even look on YouTube. It will give you insight on what college would be right for you. Also, consider the realistic scores that you will have before the admission deadlines. For example, if you have a 18 on the act, then it is quite unrealistic to think a college with high act standards (like a 30 plus) will accept you. That will help you apply to college’s that you actually have a shot at. So get out there, and do the work! Good luck to my aspiring creative writing major community \ud83d\ude09<\/span><\/p>\n
