post_it_online_twice

Ha! Thanks -- I'm a witch! I haven't received an email (yet) so I guess I'll continue to, er, wait. I've been trying to deduce if they send wait list emails the day after rejections, but then decided that it's out of my hands and added neuroses won't help. I hope you've gotten/will get good news, too!

Hm, I wonder if Brown will send out all notifications this week.

Thanks! I was rejected by a slew, wait listed at a program that takes only 4 students, and then got a phone call. Definitely shocked and I'm hoping the director didn't mistake my attempt to maintain composure as aloofness, haha.

Does anyone have information regarding NYU's program reputation? Like, does the program lean more toward realism than experimental? I'm lucky enough to have been given a fellowship that will pay for tuition, and will most likely attend.

Hm, out of curiosity, I wonder if Brown asks accepted students to not post online. I didn't see an acceptance listed for 2017, though I guess it's also likely that the few who were accepted aren't glued to GradCafe. Ah, either way, good luck! Oh, and is anyone else waiting for word from NYU?

Hmm, has anyone heard from Brown? (Whether here, The Draft, the whisperings of the wind?)

Michigan seems to have notified accepted applicants; I’m assuming it’s another rejection.

Does anyone know how long Iowa’s notification window is for acceptances? I see two fiction ones have been listed.

Not to be a total downer, but has anyone else already began preparing their manuscript for next year? I have gotten nothing but rejections, and though I have a handful of schools left, I am not holding my breath. I think I have a better understanding of my voice now so I am looking forward to trying again! Good luck, y'all! Things tend to work out, one way or another.
