Ivy Tech students enter with strong foundations in writing, literature, humanities, and world languages, and then build toward upper-level creative writing workshops, literature courses, and a senior capstone seminar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Students typically enter Butler with junior standing and complete the remaining degree requirements in approximately two years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"fulfilled\">What\u2019s Fulfilled Through Your Ivy Tech Degree<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the agreement, Ivy Tech coursework fulfills many Butler Core and English foundation requirements, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Foreign Language requirement (14 credits, including two courses at the 200 level or above)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>English\/literature coursework (a range of 6\u201315 credits, depending on what you completed)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Electives (typically 5\u201314 credits)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"courses\">What Courses Will I Take at Butler?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019ll complete the remaining Creative Writing + English coursework at Butler (mostly upper-division), plus any remaining Butler requirements identified during transfer evaluation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Licensure Requirements<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This program is non-licensure. Students completing EN 455 \u2013 Writing in the Schools (ICR) will engage in supervised school-based writing instruction but do not receive teaching licensure. No state licensure exams are required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"next\">Next Steps<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Apply to Butler \u2013<\/strong> Select \u201cBA in English \u2013 Creative Writing.\u201d<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Submit your Ivy Tech transcripts \u2013<\/strong> Request an official credit evaluation.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Meet with an academic advisor \u2013<\/strong> Review remaining requirements and discuss workshop and literature options.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Explore scholarships \u2013<\/strong> Use Butler\u2019s Outside Scholarships and financial aid resources.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"cost\">Estimated Program Cost<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Your remaining 60 credits at Butler are billed per credit hour.
