MFA Program Coordinators will send you details about the residency to help you prepare for your first semester in Antioch's MFA Program. Some of the details that will be shared closer to the residency are:
Student Handbook and Materials: The December 2025 residency student handbook, schedule, workshop materials, and other relevant materials will be available in the second week of November.
Buddy System: Each new student will be paired with a “buddy,” a continuing student who will assist you in preparing for your first residency.
Residency Website: Access to the December 2025 residency website on CVENT will be provided 1-2 weeks before the residency.
