The Master of Fine Arts in Writing at the University of Saskatchewan is a thesis-based graduate program in creative writing. Admission requires a strong portfolio of original writing alongside a four-year honours undergraduate degree, or equivalent, plus a completed online application, application fee, and supporting documents. Students complete workshop-based coursework in creative writing and work individually with faculty writers to develop a book-length creative thesis, which is defended orally before a graduate committee. The program supports work across major literary genres, including fiction, poetry, and creative nonfiction, and prepares graduates for further writing, publishing, or teaching careers. Applicants apply through the College of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies, which administers admission, funding, and thesis examination for the program, and international applicants, or those whose first language is not English, may be required to demonstrate English language proficiency.
