The Writers College will be closing at 5pm on the 14th of December 2024.
We will be back on the 13th of January 2025.
Can I still apply for a course?
You are welcome to apply for a course during this time. We will process all applications when we return on the 13th of January.
Should I start my course now or in the New Year?
You are welcome to apply for a course and get started before we close. For many people, starting a course over the festive season break is a great opportunity to spend some time writing. If you do start a course that will run over the festive season, we automatically add an extra four weeks to cover any time you or your tutor might take off.
What if I need my tutor over the break?
Most of our tutors will have a well-deserved break. Some of our tutors may be available during this time. They will communicate their availability with you. Some courses allow the student to download subsequent modules from the student centre at any time. If your tutor normally sends you subsequent modules, please make sure to request them before the 14th of December in case your tutor will be away. You are welcome to send assignments for marking to your tutor at any time but please be patient if your tutor is unavailable. If you have the next module, you are welcome to look ahead and start considering your next tasks.
We wish you a safe and peaceful time over the festive season.

What Our Students Say
The course was, at times, challenging – which was great as I had a lot to learn. I was able to get more real-life experience and that’s invaluable. Sarah was a thoroughly professional tutor. She went the extra mile to help and I felt lucky to have her as a tutor. She was very patient and her straight-up and consistent style of teaching was excellent. I was challenged and encouraged to be brave with my writing. The Writers College is both professional and friendly, and the courses I have done through them are relevant to magazine journalism today.
The Writers College is a hidden gem among online writing programs. It has the high, rich quality of an Oxford Continuing Education writing course for an incredibly affordable cost. I cannot recommend it enough in all my writing circles.
My writing confidence has dramatically improved as a result of doing two courses with the College.
I feel really encouraged to continue writing and feel that I have learned a lot about what good writing requires, thanks to Helen’s guidance. Thank you so much for this wonderful experience!
My tutor was incredible! One of the best instructors of my lifetime. I was very lucky to be her student. I have found my passion.
I am grateful for all this course has given me. Karen inspired me, kept me on my toes and expertly guided me from an abject fear of working with WordPress, to totally loving it.
I have only good things to say about this college and will recommend it to anyone who will listen. Best service from any correspondence college I have used so far.
It forces you out of your comfort zone which doesn’t just make you a better poet, it makes you a more honest person as well. We all know the only way to become a better writer is to write - that’s what The Writers College does: provides you with the opportunity to write your heart out.
Loved every moment! It was wonderful to get so much personal attention. At any large learning institution you are nothing but a number, so being treated like I was the only student - like I actually mattered - was a very nice change!
I was looking for a learning experience that would give me more confidence to move into this industry - The Writers College gave that to me.
I have so enjoyed exploring the world of poetry, and The Writers College afforded me that opportunity in ways that went far beyond my expectations.
The improvement in the quality of my writing from the first module to the last is palpable.
I have rediscovered a part of myself that was a childhood dream and feel that my experience with The Writers College has armed me with enough confidence in myself and my ability to take my writing as far as I want to.
I felt great satisfaction at the completion of each task and that motivated me to try and improve my skills at each step. I have learnt so much more than I anticipated.
