Creative Writing — Modified Academic Program
Academic Certificate ─ AC 6224
24 Credits
The Academic Certificate (AC) in Creative Writing degree is designed to provide
students and professional writers with access to a community of writers and creative
writing activities, instruction and guidance from established authors, and ongoing support
in improving their writing skills and marketing their work. As students take courses in the
program, they will build a portfolio of original work that may be used to seek admittance
to a bachelor's or master's level creative writing program or that may include work to be
submitted for publication. The program offers classes, workshops, and other activities
such as readings and contests, which are accessible to writers of all levels regardless of
academic or professional standing. The program serves many students, especially
women, minorities, seniors, and working adults, who are under-represented in traditional
creative writing programs because of cultural, dialect or language differences, scheduling
difficulties, financial need, or lack of academic experience. Completion of the certificate
does not lead to a particular degree program, but may aid students in their pursuit of a
career in the writing professions and in their continued enjoyment of writing for personal
growth.
Program Notes: Students must earn a grade of “C” or better for all courses required
within the program. + indicates course has prerequisites and/or corequisites. ++ indicates
