The Writing Sample
If this is your first workshop at The Writing Institute and you would like to be considered for an advanced level class, please send a brief writing sample of three to five pages by e-mail to cce@sarahlawrence.edu or by mail to the address on the registration form. You may send something you have written for another purpose. Samples enable the teacher to plan the class around students’ interests and abilities.
