Welcome!

to the largest Web-based writing school

To view the course descriptions, go to the COURSE CATALOG (there's also a button at your left). Each catalog entry links to a course description page. To register, just scroll to the bottom of the course description page.

You may register by secure credit card, using PayPal, or send us a US-bank check, or a money order.

In Brief:

How do I sign up for a course? (Step-by-step).
I'm not so sure about this. (Can I trust you guys?)
Why are the classes so expensive? (Answer: they aren't)

More than 60 courses. Taught by writers for writers. We're an online correspondence school. Lessons are posted on web pages or come to you by e-mail. There is no "brick-and-mortar" classroom. There is no specific "class time" for you to be at your computer. You read the lessons and do the homework on your own schedule.

Your course starts the Monday after you register and lasts for 4, 6 or 8 weeks. We also offer 'Extended' courses which last twice as long and cost slightly more. Explain this to me.

In addition, we have some very inexpensive one-week seminars which also start the Monday after you register.

Most courses are basic. The few with prerequisites are so marked.

Prices are low, and there is a 10-day full-refund drop period if you don't like what you see. (Drop period does not apply to seminars.)

Newsletters are posted online. Sign up here for email notices.

Newsletters are weekly if we feel like it, and not if we don't. News, muses, essays, funny photos, whatever. The newsletter is not mailed to you but, rather, is stored on this web site, and you may view the latest one Here. Signing up in the box above means you will receive a notification e-mail when a fresh newsletter is posted.

Five Easy Steps to Registering for a Course:

1) Click on the COURSE CATALOG button at the top left in the Navigation area. That takes you to an alphabetical listing of all courses. (So will clicking on the link here.)

2) Scroll down, reading the mini-descriptions, to find a course that interests you.

3) Click on that course name to read a full description, course outline and teacher biography.

4) At the bottom of that individual course description page are links to use to register for the course. One link is for checks and money orders, the other for credit and debit cards.

5) When we receive your registration, we'll assign a start date, usually the next Monday, and notify your teacher.

Not sure about us?

Read our FAQs (Frequently-Asked Questions) page. If you have questions not answered there, e-mail us at Director@WritersCollege.com In the US you may also call 813-236-7509.

But know this too: WritersCollege.com started in 1998 and, with more than 60 courses, is one of the oldest and largest schools on the web. We have taught students, thousands of them, from most of the countries of the world.

We don't cheat people. We don't even see your credit cards; that's one reason we use PayPal. No other school offers a ten-day no-questions-asked refund.

The only question is: Will you work hard at learning the information? That is the biggest single determinant of success.

Why are the classes so expensive?

The short answer is: They are not. Some of these same courses are or were taught by the same teachers, for major universities, and at a fee as much as 3-5 times higher.

Keep in mind that the most expensive form of education is personal experience. Having the benefit of our teachers' personal experience is a lot cheaper than starting from zero yourself.
