Is Emory good for English/writing majors?

@starflower007

This link discusses opportunities available to creative writing majors while at Emory and also mentions some post graduate opportunities that Emory creative writing grads have obtained.

My understanding is that the English Department is pretty lax about required courses. I believe that a 200 level poetry course is the only requirement. That would bode well for transfer students.

Emory students generally don’t declare majors until the end of their sophomore year - again a good thing for transfers.

I recommend that you look at the cited web pages for information about fellowships, creative writing seminars, student run journals, etc. and also check to see if you’re on track to take advanced creative writing workshops when you arrive, given your credit hour situation.
