Welcome to Where to Submit, friends.
I can’t believe it’s already September, can you!? Well, I kinda can, seeing as school started last week, which for me means workshops to attend and even more poems to read. It’s that back-to-school energy, which also means it’s officially MFA application season.
If you’ve ever thought about applying—or are deep in the weeds of personal statements, sample pages, and panic—we got you. This Thursday, September 4th, we’re hosting The MFA Toolkit: Everything You Need to Apply Like a Pro. We’ll talk about how to make the process less mysterious, more strategic, and honestly … a little more fun. Register below and join us from 6–7:30 PM ET. ↓
