Charles Said:

What's the best way to look for colleges if I want to be a writer?

We Answered:

I suggest researching smaller, liberal arts schools. They will give you the most individual attention in your writing and as a student in general because there is a higher teacher to student ratio. It doesn't matter if your undergraduate college also has an MFA program. Most people do receive their MFA from the same place as their undergrad degree. In fact, many people move out of state, and even across the country for their degrees.
