What this opportunity is really like
Here’s the short version before you leave Pathfind to investigate the official details.
What you would do
Two residential weeks of creative writing workshops in Iowa City, following an application that asks for a writing sample, a statement of purpose, and a teacher recommendation.
Why it might be worth your time
Need-based aid includes several full-tuition grants, so the price isn't necessarily the barrier it looks like — but the application does ask for real writing.
Is it a good fit?
For grades 10–12 who write and can supply a sample plus a teacher recommendation.
