I'm assuming this is the best place to post this.

I aspire to be a creative writing college professor. I plan to get my undergraduate degree in creative writing. So far, I've looked at Sarah Lawrence, Pratt, and Emerson. I'll be applying as a transfer student, as I'm currently in community college in Ohio. Location does not bother me - I am even willing to go to Canada. I want to get my undergraduate degree in CW as I know I need to build a portfolio so I can have materials to be published. Most colleges like you to be published before they will hire you. I will likely get my MA and PhD in English with a Creative Writing Emphasis.

Any other schools I should look at?

Washington Univ. MFA Writing/PhD in St. Louis will let you go for free and even give you $17,000 or more.
