The program offers full funding. All students receive teaching fellowships, which includes a tuition waiver, health insurance, and a yearly stipend of $24,000 for the two-year program.
The program hosts a reading series with six visiting writers each year, as well as the student-run reading series Live-Lit West.
The program offers a tailored, individual approach; first-year students work independently with each faculty writer in their genre through focused reading/writing tutorials.
