Who may apply?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anyone with a passion to write and a commitment to improve their craft. This program is NOT exclusive to current MTSU students; in fact it is designed for adults who are seeking to further a specific writing goal or project at their own pace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How long is the full program?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The program spans over three sessions that roughly coincide with MTSU’s fall, spring, and summer semesters. Sessions need not be sequential; students can complete the program at their own pace. Students may also re-enroll for single sessions (after the completion of the program) for additional time with a professional.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Will I earn college credit?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

MTSU Write is a non-degree project of Â鶹ÊÓƵ’s English department and hence does not offer any college credit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

May I transfer courses from another university and receive credit?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The MTSU Write program focuses on work completed while in the program. Course credit and work produced elsewhere are not transferable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Does MTSU Write accept financial aid or offer scholarships?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because we are a not for credit program, MTSU Write is not eligible to accept financial aid payments. We do not currently offer scholarships for the program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If I am already working on a writing project, a novel or nonfiction work for example, can I continue to work on it in the program?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Absolutely. In fact, we encourage you to do so. Students often enter the program with either an idea in mind or a rough manuscript in hand, and we are only too happy to help you produce a complete manuscript. Many of our students continue to enroll in MTSU Write in order to enlist the help of faculty in project after project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do I retain the rights to any material created while in MTSU Write?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yes. Everything you write belongs to you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
