About

Liberty University's online Associate of Arts (AA) in Creative Writing is designed to help students cultivate their literary voice and develop foundational skills in writing, editing, and storytelling. This program can help those who dream of writing fiction, poetry, screenplays, or creative nonfiction to explore tools and techniques used by authors, receive feedback from experienced professors, and practice the craft in multiple genres. Students can study composition, research, visual and verbal text analysis, and publishing practices while also learning how argumentation, style, and voice shape effective communication. The degree is particularly well suited for emerging writers, content creators, or those seeking a stepping-stone for further study or a bachelor's degree in writing, literature, or related fields. Graduates may pursue roles such as author, copywriter, blogger, screenwriter, or web content writer. By offering a fully online, flexible format and personal mentoring from faculty, this AA can help students build discipline, confidence, and creative and professional writing skills that are applicable across many creative and communication careers.
