Waitlist Movement
Peppermint&Rooibos replied to Scarlet A+'s topic in Literature, and Rhetoric and Composition
I turned down my offer at Iowa yesterday afternoon. I hope that helps (or has already helped) one of you out! -

I was also accepted at Iowa off of the waitlist, but I'll most likely be turning down their offer. I anticipate making my final decision very soon, so hopefully that helps someone out! -

Waitlist Movement
Peppermint&Rooibos replied to Scarlet A+'s topic in Literature, and Rhetoric and Composition
I asked them about my position on the waitlist, likelihood of admission, timeline, etc. and he responded that he couldn't tell me my exact position but that he could tell me a general position/likelihood and suggested that I should expect to hear more info very soon. Perhaps email him as well (if you haven't already done so)? It was an informative email, for sure. -

You mentioned Iowa. So does this mean you or your partner have received a waitlist notification from them? Still in the dark with my status there! -

Is anyone else in the dark about their Iowa status? Saw that a couple of rejections and acceptances have been sent out, so just wondering if anyone has any inside scoop? -

Villanova Question
Peppermint&Rooibos replied to Scarlet A+'s topic in Literature, and Rhetoric and Composition
I second @Warelin. I did my undegrad at Villanova and applied to their MA program, too, and one of my professors said the adcomm meets a few times before all decisions are handed out. So do not worry at al!. And if you have any questions at all about the department/school, please feel free to PM me. There is no place I love more than Villanova. -

Just got into UVa! Received a really lovely phone call from their DGS. Totally and utterly shocked! -
2017 Acceptances
Peppermint&Rooibos replied to JessicaLange's topic in Literature, and Rhetoric and Composition
Hello! Long-time lurker here. Congrats to everyone who has been accepted to a program! I noticed on the boards that someone posted about the Baylor preview day. I received the same email. Thoughts? Has anyone heard about this preview day before? The email from the DGS stated that it's neither an interview nor an acceptance...so what in the world is it? To make sure we're living and breathing humans?
