Graduate Testimonials
Sarah Wexler (Creative Nonfiction MFA 2007)
Freelance Writer
“
My classmates at Pitt were supportive, challenging, and always helpful, and the MFA public reading series helped form a solid writers' community. Also, the strict manuscript requirements and deadlines forced me to write more—and write better—than I would have in any other program.
