Longtime lurker first time poster...
Oodles of gratitude to this crew for the awesome guidance & community y'all have built through this process!
Wanted to share a waitlist notification for Florida Atlantic U (poetry), received earlier today via email. Short but nice note, mentioned they should be following up "within the month" which seemed like oddly specific guidance... should I temper expectations or is that a strong "likely" signal!?
So far this cycle have been admitted to Nevada - Reno and Northern Arizona (both for poetry); funding still tbd for both.
Would be truly thrilled with any above programs, funding permitting.
Other schools this cycle: rejected from OSU, UMass Amherst, Vandy, UWisconsin so far.
A few more in the pipeline (UNLV, JHU, Eastern Washington, Cleveland State/NEOMFA...)
Hoping it's good news all 'round on this thread as we continue through the gauntlet!
