There are a lot of distinctions. First, unlike many programs, our admissions are selective. Our faculty and writers alike have been impressed by the quality of the writing they see in the workshops. But despite—or maybe because of—competitive admissions, the program’s environment is open and friendly. We don’t distinguish the published from the unpublished. Our alumni have formed strong relationships and have gone on to set up their own online workshops so they can continue to work together. And finally, our writers get a lot of face time with faculty, both resident and visiting. I’ve never been to a writing program. Is yours appropriate for beginners? Admissions are based exclusively on the strength of the writing sample. If you’re accepted, the program is right for you. I’ve published. Would your program be a waste of my time? No. We’ve had quite a few MFA’s and authors of book- length work attend. Will the program help me get published? As we always say, we all write to be read. In Session I, we have panel discussions with literary journals, independent presses, agents, and big- lit editors. These talks are followed by pitch sessions in which our students present their work. While we can’t guarantee a result we can guarantee the opportunity. Is Session II just a shorter version of Session I?
No. Session I and Session II are entirely different. Session II workshops focus on specific fields, like poetry or playwriting, or distinct genres, such as historical fiction or memoir. In Session II the workshops meet every day, rather than every other. There are no visiting faculty or master classes in Session II. In other words Session II is intended to focus on issues particular to discrete genres. What is the age of YWC participants?
Writers are over the age of 1. Unfortunately, we are not able to make an exception for minors but encourage those under the age of 1.
Writers of all ages attend. We have had participants from 1. Can I attend more than one workshop? No. You’ll work with the same faculty and colleagues throughout the program. That’s equally true in both Sessions. Can I attend more than one master class? No. Master classes are limited in size. You may only attend the Master Class to which you have been admitted. However everyone can attend the Craft Talk in the afternoon offered by the Master Class Instructor. Can I apply to both fiction and non- fiction?
Yes, you may apply, but you can only attend one. You will also have to supply two writing samples. Please combine all pages into one document for uploading with your application. May I request to change the workshop(s) in which I am enrolled after admission? Upon approval of the Director, and only if there is space available. Can writers living outside of the United States apply? Yes. They can attend the program on a B- 2 visa. For those participating in both Session I and Session II – Do I need to re- register?
No, you do not need to register twice. For those participating in both Session I and Session II – can I leave campus on the day in between?
Yes. Do you have a Facebook page? Yes, please go to our Facebook page and send us a request to join the page. Membership is limited to admitted YWC writers. How do I apply? Please visit our website and click on the application link.
What should my submission be like? A writing sample is required to complete your application. The sample should be about 1,3. Word or as a PDF document. Each page should include your name. Please use font size 1.
If your writing sample is more than 1,3. Please be sure that your writing sample is specific to the genre of the workshop to which you are applying. What do you look for in a writing sample?
A voice and words in the right place. The former means that we can hear the writer talking; the latter, prose that’s neither over mannered or awkward. And that doesn’t necessarily mean that we like the piece—just that it’s well written. When will I learn if I have been accepted to the program? Applications received by February 2. March 1. 6. Applications received by April 3. May 1. 8. Does my writing sample have to be the same thing I intend to present in the workshop? No.
We are just interested in getting a sense of your writing. You are free to submit something else if you are accepted. I don’t have any work of the length requested for the writing sample. Can I submit several shorter pieces? Yes, but remember, whatever you submit has to be appropriate for that workshop. Please combine all pages into one document for uploading with your application.
Can I submit a writing sample outside the genre? For example, even if I am applying for fiction, can I submit an essay or poetry? No.
Please submit a writing sample appropriate to the genre of your workshop choice. I want to attend both Session I and Session II. Do I have to apply to each separately? Do I have to submit two writing samples? No. Just make sure you’ve indicated on the application that you want to attend both Sessions. Submit an appropriate sample for Session II. If you’re admitted to Session II, you’ll also be accepted for Session I. Can I submit letters of recommendation? No. Your application is evaluated exclusively on the strength of your writing. What percentages of applicants are accepted? That varies according to session and section. In general, we accept about 5.
What does it mean if I am wait listed? Applications are evaluated in two rounds. If someone is waitlisted in the earlier round, it may mean that we simply want to hold his or her application until we have a better idea of what the second round applicant pool is like. We also need to see how many of those accepted in the first round actually enroll. What is the best way to get rejected? Obviously, this is not a question frequently asked, but it should be. The answer is sloppiness. The Director will stop reading at the first spelling error, and if you submit an application that doesn’t follow the guidelines, you have raised a red flag.
If I am accepted, what do I have to do to hold my place? Remit payment by the deadline. Writers are enrolled in order of payment. For that reason, if you delay payment your first choice workshop can fill up, and you’ll get your second choice. The same is true with master classes. We do, however, post workshop and master class closures as they occur. Which methods of payment do you accept?
We can accept a check or Visa/Master.
