Graduate Writing Programs at HopkinsJohns Hopkins has two graduate writing programs. They have different formats, curricula and admissions guidelines. Applying to one does not mean you have applied to the other. Here are descriptions: The M.A. in Writing Program (contact information above) is designed for part-time study in fiction, nonfiction, poetry, and science-medical writing and offers full degree programs at the Hopkins Dupont Circle center in Washington, D.C. and at the main Hopkins Homewood Campus in Baltimore. Writers can apply and, if accepted, begin study in the M.A. Program in the Fall, Spring, or Summer terms. Students study at their own pace, earning a degree in two to five years. The M.A. in Writing Program generally has a broader admissions mandate than the other, full-time graduate writing program at Hopkins, The Writing Seminars. However, M.A. program acceptance still is based on a competitive review of writing samples and other materials. Many of its students work or have other obligations that make full-time study impossible. The program attracts most of its applicants from Maryland, Virginia, or the District of Columbia, although students sometimes move into the area to attend, or they commute from Pennsylvania, Delaware, West Virginia, or New York. Students can earn a degree by attending in either Washington or Baltimore, or both. The program, founded in the 1990s, has offices in Washington and Baltimore and is part of the Advanced Academic Programs division of the Krieger School of Arts and Sciences at Hopkins. The Writing Seminars (contact information below) is only for full-time study in fiction, poetry, and science writing and is based and offered only at the Homewood Campus in Baltimore. The Seminars awards the Master of Fine Arts degree in fiction and poetry (two-year full-time program) and the Master of Arts in science writing (one year full-time). Applications for the Seminars are accepted only into January each year for the following Fall Term. The nationally ranked fiction and poetry concentrations at the Seminars attract applicants from around the nation and world and make up one of America’s oldest and most exclusive writing programs. The Seminars does not have a nonfiction program. However, it offers a popular undergraduate degree at the Homewood campus. The Seminars is a department of the Krieger School of Arts and Sciences at Hopkins.
