  1. New year, new contributors Hope this site has been helpful!
  2. The MFA Years is taking first year blogger applications until June 1st. If anyone is starting their MFA in the fall and is interested click here. We're taking four each in poetry, fiction and non fiction.
  3. If anyone has questions about UVA let me know
  4. They've sent out decisions to all applicants, I believe.
  5. UC Irvine asks applicants not to post about acceptances online so it's hard to know.
  6. From UVA: "We are unlikely to make admissions offers before March 16, and we have made no admissions notifications to any applicant at this time."
  7. I would contact schools now but that's just me. You're welcome! Yep, and I was on the waitlist at UVA before I was accepted. Crossing my fingers for you!
  8. I was wait listed at four programs last year. Possibly five but it wasn't official. See if you can talk to current students! That was incredibly helpful for me.
  9. UIUC didn't call wait listers last year. At least not in poetry. Congrats! I had a great experience talking with UIUC last year (I was waitlisted in poetry). I've heard great things about fiction too.
  10. Iowa has started contacting accepted people in February since at least 2012 and rejections went out last year in early March. They started notifications a little later in 2012 so some of them might have went out in March then.
  11. I agree. I wouldn't worry about people being too supportive in workshop to the point where they are no longer being critical. I have heard good things about Iowa from current students who are in Draft. I would definitely ask the department if you can talk to a few
  12. It's great! Love the community here, and the energy. Everyone is very supportive of one another (the program is big on non-competitiveness). Can't say too much about the fiction side but the visiting writers they've had this year have been great—James Salter, Meg Wolitzer, Caryl Phillips, and others.
  13. UVA is any where from late March to early April. Last year acceptances and waitlists went out on March 18th.
  14. There have been a few Iowa poetry acceptances today on Draft. Maybe someone on here will get good news!
