Once again it is time to scientifically determine the best writing school in the country. This year’s seeding is based on last year’s results. Can Vermont defend its title? Stay tuned.
We ask that you leave your vote on the comments page of this post. Only one vote per person per school this round please. But if you like you can vote for two schools, yours and another. This next round of voting will determine the final 2! Because how long can we really keep this up?

1. Vermont College: 192
2. Bama: 64
3. Ohio State: 51
4. McNeese: 44
5. Goddard: 43 (a spate of late votes would have made G number 3, but…..)
6. George Mason: 35

Got to be Vermont College of Fine Arts once again!
UNCW is clearly the best. I mean, look at all these people who went to second-rate writing schools. They aren’t even spelling “UNCW” correctly.
Ashland!
Ashland U.
My money (and my pen) are on Stony Brook Southampton/Manhattan. This campus offers an unbeatable combination of location and published talent with networking and street cred. Between Southampton and Manhattan you get a dynamic range (from ocean beaches to skyscrapers) and unparalleled access to artists in all forms of literature and media. The secret sauce? Freedom to grow and explore along with enthusiastic support of faculty and fellow writers. Priceless.
VCFA!
