This brief-residency program provides students the opportunity to enter an intensive course of study with minimal disruption. During two residencies each year, students will spend 7-10 days in workshops, lectures, and seminars with a distinguished faculty of writers. The rest of the program takes place via online courses which students can complete within the context of their everyday lives.
