Omat63: I was given pure English but during registration i woud want to combine with theatre arts

I dnt think it can b combined,but u can decide to borrow some courses from theatre arts if specified during course registration

Creative writing was okay when I took it,it deals with creativity nd d aesthetics of writing....you still av courses like stylistics,american literature,Advanced composition an so on. Some will prove to b difficult.
