Though, if you’re thinking about getting your MFA, then I highly recommend the low-residency program at Converse College. Application deadline is February 15th.

Enjoyed your post on why you did the low residency MFA. I did it the traditional way, but your way looks great too!
I’m sort of stuck in the crossroads of wanting and not wanting an MFA. I took a semester at Hamline University’s Writing for Children and Young Adults–which was low residency–and I learned so much, but it was so expensive that I ended up leaving the program. Why do MFAs have to cost so much???? I’m actually considering a regular MFA program, but really only because I would be able to apply for more aid and possibly win a TA-ship.
Hope this doesn’t sound too nosy, but were you able to get any aid apart from loans?
