Program details

Overview

The English & Creative Writing program is offered through the Faculty of Humanities & Social Sciences at Trinity Western University's Langley campus, leading to a Bachelor of Arts degree, with an honours option, concentration, and minor also available. Coursework combines the study of classical and contemporary literary texts with training in creative writing, developing students' critical thinking, interpretive skills, and their own creative and expository voice. Students examine how the English language has shaped literature, history, and culture, while working on original writing across genres. The program pairs literary analysis with hands-on creative writing instruction, building skills in interpreting texts and understanding the cultural contexts in which they were produced. Graduates pursue careers in publishing, broadcasting, teaching from the elementary through higher-education levels, writing and editing, librarianship, public relations, and research.

Requirements

Admission Requirements: Direct-entry admission from a Canadian high school requires graduation with a minimum 70% average in Grade 12 English (or equivalent) plus three additional Grade 12 academic courses; the specific required courses and additional-course counts vary by province. International applicants must also meet Trinity Western's English language proficiency requirement, generally IELTS Academic 6.5 or TOEFL iBT 88 overall, or a lower-score pathway with academic support.
