Best Creative Writing Graduate Programs 2014
The best way to know the truth about any writing program is to interrogate the students, who can always be relied on to be recklessly truthful. Ideally you do this face to face, at our Open House - which is usually held in the first week of November – but while you're waiting, here's a profile of our program that was broadcast recently on BBC News, here's an article about our program by John Freeman in Electric Literature, and here's an interview with Peter Carey, in which he talks about teaching here at Hunter. You should also check out the links below to work by our student and alumni fiction writers, poets and memoirists.
