2012-09-05 15:08:10 by JeffMintonAn MFA is a creative degree. It's designed more for training and personal growth than it is for credentialing. However, when it comes to writing, the former is the more important. Bottom line, if you want to make it as a writer you need two things: 1) you need to be damn good at what you do, 2) you need to know your business. A good MFA program is the best place in the world to achieve those two things. It will also give you a lot of opportunity for networking. As an alumn of the Wilkes University Creative Writing Low-Residency MFA program, I cannot recommend it higher. It's a bit different

I was thinking about getting a Master's Degree online in Graphic Design. I saw Master of Arts is 45 hrs. and Master of Fine Arts is 90 hrs. Is there a benefit of getting a Master of Arts Degree? Just wondering if it is impressive on a resume. Thanks!
The distinction between those two degrees really depends on the school. Look at the curriculum and see which one better matches your interests. Maybe the MA program focuses on the communications theory aspects of graphic …/> What do you mean by "45hrs" and "90hrs"? Is that for the whole program, total? I've gone to graduate school for graphic design and I spent 90hrs a week in school, classes, and studio. That's fishy.
