Just wanted to sign off and say "bye" to everyone on here! I chose my school and I'm moving on to obsessing about moving. (Just FYI - I still haven't heard from Univ Florida, Univ Alaska Fairbanks, Florida State Univ, or Northern Michigan. ?‍♀️ REMEMBER - there will be BOATLOADS of waitlist activity. People are getting in off of waitlists weeks before they normally do right now - most people applied to so many programs and will only go to one. HANG IN THERE and keep your hopes up!

And waitlists.

It’s also only a 1/1 teaching load and some students pick up extra work. They also have additional scholarships - Including a 5k diversity scholarship available. Not to mention, that part of Ohio is seriously cheap...

Would you call any fully-funded program “crappy”? I don’t think I would...

Rambling, over-explaining... ✅ Marshall.

UF seems to have sent out all of their acceptances and waitlists (certainly have for fiction and I believe for poetry). I’ve considered it a loss since last week.

And here's a start of a poem...

People - 1. don’t feed the troll. 2. Where ? is ? IOWA.

Hard to know if that “within the week” still holds ?

So... Word on the street was Iowa was supposed to make their calls “within the week” last week, and I’m seeing only one poetry acceptance out of 25. Do we think Iowa will be calling accepted poets today?

Hey - I saw your other posts. This is the Creative Writing board - you're probably in the wrong spot to ask this question If you're also working on poem though, let me know. I love a good science crossover...

Especially form rejections.

Typically the FB draft group will have a lot of people posting about rejections when mass rejections go out, and no one’s mentioned a Brown rejection there. It seems like a huge number of poets apply there. Seems suspect.

So... do those Brown rejections belong to anyone or are they just bogus troll droppings? ETA: RE: 3 Brown rejections (poetry) that all appeared at the same time on the results page lookin’ a lil sus.

Syracuse. ETA: Still holding out hope that I’ll get the call and waiting to hear from Iowa.
