Description:
Through the Writing Seminars Bennington College offers a low-residency
Master of Fine Arts (M.F.A.) Program in Writing and Literature. Our program
puts as much emphasis upon reading as upon writing.The two-year program
involves intense 10-day residency periods at Bennington’s Green Mountain
campus during January and June of each year. Between residencies, students
spend the six-month semesters corresponding directly with writers who teach
as part of the program’s core faculty. There are structural opportunities in
the Seminars to write across genres, such as the third-semester switch
option, and many of our teachers write in more than one form.
