The Creative Writing Associate of Arts Degree is a two-year, 60-credit university-transfer credential at Selkirk College's Castlegar campus, combining creative-writing workshops in fiction, poetry and non-fiction with literature and general-education courses across four terms. Students receive instructor feedback on their writing and gain editorial experience through Black Bear Review, the college's student-run literary magazine. The credential is a formally established, province-wide-recognized associate degree delivered on campus, with intakes in Fall, Winter and Spring. Graduation requires completion of 60 credits of university-level study with an overall GPA of 2.0. The degree is a pathway to a Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Fine Arts and to careers in publishing, research, technical writing, library science and education; students continuing to another institution should confirm course transferability through the BC Transfer Guide.
