The Solstice Low-Residency MFA in Creative Writing Program at Pine Manor College offers concentrations in fiction, creative nonfiction, poetry, comics & graphic narratives, and writing for children & young adults. Our mission is to help students reach their full potential as writers through a demanding curriculum that balances the workshop experience with the study of literary craft, criticism, and theory, and to prepare students for the rigors of being a professional writer after graduation. The Solstice Program provides a learning environment that fosters community and celebrates the individual, and ensures that all students have access to professional development opportunities— including an optional Applied Track in Pedagogy for those who wish to teach at the college level. Working with some of the best writers in the country, students of Pine Manor College's MFA program emerge with a deep, well-rounded knowledge of their art, a strategy for continuing the development of their creative vision, and a supportive circle of peers and mentors. Graduation Requirements In order to graduate, students must have received a passing grade for 60 credits of course work and must have attended five, 10-day residencies. In addition to receiving passing grades for all course work, students must complete a creative thesis (a novel, graphic narrative, or book-length collection of poems, short stories, or creative nonfiction) that is approved by a faculty mentor, give a reading from his or her creative thesis, and teach one hour-long lecture at the culminating residency.
