UFV’s Bachelor of Fine Arts with a minor or extended minor in Creative Writing helps you turn your passion for writing into a career. You have the opportunity to explore a wide range of writing genres such as fiction, drama, poetry, and screenwriting to help you hone and focus your own work. You benefit from UFV’s small class sizes, which create a supportive environment for critique and feedback, and provide an excellent breeding ground to develop your creative writing skills.
You can choose to pair a Creative Writing extended minor with a Visual Arts major as part of UFV’s Bachelor of Fine Arts program. Or, combine your extended minor in Creative Writing with another extended minor in one of four other fine arts disciplines, including Art History and Visual Studies, Media and Communication Studies, Theatre, and Visual Arts.
To gain writing and editing experience and build your portfolio while you study, join the editorial board of Louden Singletree, UFV's student-run literary and visual arts magazine. Or become a contributor to the Cascade, UFV's student newspaper. Or take advantage of optional paid work placements with the UFV Co-operative Education program to graduate with work experience and references for other employment or graduate school.
