Suppose I already got, or am getting, my M.F.A. in playwriting at Hollins but also want the certificate training. Can I do that? How does that work with the classes I already took?

When a student who had graduated from the program is accepted into the certificate program, they would not have to take Narrative Theory or Playscript Analysis again. Instead, they would substitute those two courses with a creative and an analytical course from the playwriting curriculum that meets at the same time as those foundational courses. The same thing is true of a certificate student who chooses to continue their studies by getting the M.F.A. in playwriting.
