Program Overview

Students in SCC’s Creative Writing programs will hone their craft through workshops in specific genres as well as courses in publishing and literary study. You’ll take non-fiction, poetry, and fiction writing classes, complemented by literature courses and expository writing exercises. You will gain experience in broad applications for writing to build on your natural talents and better understand your own interests in the field.  

A.F.A. students will graduate with a refined creative writing portfolio, prepared to continue their studies at a four-year institution.   

The skills you develop at SCC will be invaluable to diverse fields, including teaching, publishing, marketing, and journalism. We will nurture your understanding of language and storytelling and develop your analytical and observational abilities. Ultimately, you’ll be better able to see the complexities of the world—and the people in it—with a discerning and understanding eye.  

Students will:

  • Be able to use formal vocabulary and principles to discuss literary works, including their own, their peers’, and professional writers.
  • Experience writing in various genres, from fiction to non-fiction to poetry.
  • Understand principles of literary theory, criticism, and history and can apply those principles during class workshops and through expository writing.
  • Demonstrate knowledge of past and present works of literature from diverse methods and cultures.
