EDUCATION
Queens College MFA in Creative Writing & Literary Translation
The MFA Program in Creative Writing & Literary Translation at Queens College–located in the most culturally and linguistically diverse in the nation—is dedicated to crossing boundaries in genre, craft, and language. Its literary translation track offers students an opportunity to work intensively on craft and pursue professional opportunities in the field. Classes are small, and students work closely with faculty mentors. Translation students also take cross-genre courses in our other tracks in poetry, fiction, and creative nonfiction. Apply by March 15 for financial aid consideration; final deadline April 15. For a zoom link and more information, see their website.
