Hi everyone,

 

Is anyone admitted to Rutgers-Camden for Fic/or Poetry or actually just admitted? I'm on the Waitlist rn and it is my preferred place of study. I got into Temple for Fiction with no funding. Applied to Rutgers-Camden as hybrid for fiction and Poetry and got nicely waitlisted. 

 

If anyone negotiated their funding I could use advice on how to do that too! Super shy and anxious and don't even know where to begin so anything would be helpful. 

TYSM ❤️

Goodluck to anyone else on a waitlist or still waiting for their ideal space.

Hi everyone...

 

1st time applicant and first experience on the grad cafe...

I got into Temple for fiction last week (waitlisted "high up" for a teaching assistantship) and today just got waitlisted to Rutgers Camden (which was my first choice). I applied hybrid with a Fiction manuscript that included some poetic forms. It's my first round of this application process, my waitlist letter was super encouraging from Paul Lisicky and said if a spot opens up I would receive a call. Anyone have any advice or experience with the waitlist? Particularly because I applied hybrid I'm wondering if it matters if a Fiction or Poetry space opens up. Anyway, hope more good news for acceptances and possibilities like the waitlist go around today.
