Congratulations, Red_Comet! I'm wondering. Do you have any idea, perhaps, if all the acceptances/if any waitlists have gone out! I know me, as well as some other GradCafe goers, are in Miss. Phase II purgatory—and we are eagerly awaiting even slightest bit of info!
Congrats! Just to put my two cents in here: I think you should choose Las Vegas. Of course both are wonderful options. Iowa could be very isolating—where would you go if you wanted to have a weekend away somewhere—whereas being in Nevada will offer great weather, lots of opportunity to travel, etc. Also, I would have a distinct hunch that Las Vegas might have a lot more to offer than meets the eye.
Hello! I am nervously awaiting the results like everyone! I made it to phase II for Ole Miss, and I am wondering if anyone has any idea/apprehension how many people are in phase II there? Sorry if this question has been asked elsewhere!
Any news on the FB Draft about Indiana or UC Irvine (poetry)? I saw on Gradcafe there was a rejection by email to Irvine which seemed strange, both because it came so early and by email, when in years past all rejections were by mail, and following the acceptances.
For anyone still looking at the FB page: any word on poetry acceptances to Johns Hopkins? Saw some fiction ones on GradCafe. I am assuming they probably have gone out which is a little depressing. I don't know about other people but seeing my options whittling one-by-one is very upsetting! Especially because judging from past years my last two — Irvine and Indiana — won't be revealed for a good while.
sandy bubbles: they say there are like seven other people but won't say which number I am and that the number they take off the WL can run anywhere from zero to three or four, depending on how many of the early offers accept
