Nonfiction Writing Program

Save the date!
Bedell NonfictioNow Conference
November 3-6, 2010

The Nonfiction Writing Program at the University of Iowa awards an MFA degree to accomplished students of literary nonfiction. The 48 semester hour program most often takes three years to complete, and culminates in a thesis of at least 75 pages, either a sustained essay or a collection of shorter pieces.

Our program is a cooperative venture of the core faculty noted on this site, with guest writers joining us regularly for a week or a semester at a time. The Acting Director of the NWP is David Hamilton.
