Oregon State University's Master of Fine Arts program in Creative Writing.

Creative Writing has never been more vital or successful at OSU than it is right now, with a nationally competitive pool of applicants in fiction, poetry, and creative non-fiction, full funding for all our students through GTA positions, with full tuition waiver, a vibrant Visiting Writers Series, and the new Stone Award for Lifetime Literary Achievement. Welcome to the Oregon State University MFA page, connecting our students, alumni, faculty, and friends with the latest news, readings, and upcoming events.
