    hi! i write speculative fiction as well (literary-leaning magical realism) and i was accepted to northwestern's (fully funded) litowitz program. i've also been lucky enough to talk to current students within the program, so i've heard from their mouths that their fiction writers tend to be unconventional/speculative-adjacent in terms of traditional literary fiction (juan martinez, one of the professors, writers horror). i would just say, if you do end up applying here, don't skimp on the critical components of the application packet, as it's a dual degree and carries a reputation for being rigorous.

    this is in no way a guarantee, but i do know that one of the syracruse fiction admits also got into northwestern (which offers a much bigger stipend), so who knows! with waitlists, all you can really do is wait (and let the school know how thankful you are + how much you love the program).

    just got waitlisted at michener by email! apparently, 900 people applied this application cycle ? i'm feeling very excited/flattered!!!!!!
  27. poem for her
    according to everyone on draft, NYU acceptances are sent out in batches (from highest to lowest funding), so i’m guessing most if not all of the fully funded fellowship offers have already been made to students (across all genres). someone commented that they received a fiction acceptance call 1-2 days ago. apparently, the school has told students that acceptances and waitlists will continue through march, which means partial funding offers are incoming.

    according to the mother (posting on behalf of her daughter), she received a call from michener this afternoon.

    one poetry acceptance from pitt posted in draft 5 hours ago and one posted 6 hours ago. two for CNF as well, i believe!
  30. poem for her
    to everyone waiting, i believe NYU has also started notifying applicants! there's been a CNF acceptance and two poetry acceptances posted to draft so far. not sure about fiction.
  31. poem for her
    none that i can see, but i'll keep everyone here updated since i'm also awaiting a fiction response ? possibly later this week? good luck to you!

    according to draft, cornell poetry acceptances (in the form of calls/voicemails), waitlist notifications, and rejections have gone out today. best of luck to everyone who applied!

    hi! this was also one of my concerns while applying, as i graduated last summer. i did my own research on past/current students at the programs i was applying to last fall, so i can only really speak to those, but—! i can tell you that both brown and michigan have accepted students straight out of undergrad or very close to straight out. the super competitive programs like johns hopkins and michener are much less likely to, but you shouldn't rule them out completely! i thought i'd have no shot at northwestern and i'm in with only one "gap year" between undergrad and an mfa, so don't give up hope! if you know where you'll be applying (or already have), one of the "cheats" i recommend for research purposes is looking up certain mfa programs on linkedin, clicking on people who have been accepted to those programs, and figuring out the gap between their undergrad and grad school degrees (based on years attended). hope that helps!

    we're on the outside looking in ??

    does anyone know how long it generally takes to get accepted into the draft facebook group (or if that process is super selective)? i'm hoping to find the other northwestern fiction admit, but i'm not sure using a quick, throwaway facebook account was the smartest idea ?
