Undergraduate students at Wilkes University or at our partner institutions hoping to attend a graduate program in creative writing after graduation may “double count” 9 credits of undergraduate and graduate instruction as a way of saving one semester’s tuition in the Wilkes MA program.

Degree Requirements

Upon completion of these courses the undergraduate may apply for admission into the Wilkes graduate program with one semester’s worth of transfer credit. Such students must meet all the same requirements as all other applicants in terms of demonstrated talent, ability, and dedication. Using the BA/MA(4+1) option, students will be able to complete the M.A. in single year.
