Wondering the same thing. My soul leaped out of my body when I saw the NYU result in the spreadsheet, but now, I'm not so convinced. It's such a large program that, if one person heard back, shouldn't there be some others too?
I received my rejection from the fiction waitlist about a week ago. I was surprised to hear back so early, as I heard that their waitlist sometimes runs into mid-summer. Seems like there wasn't a lot of movement this year. Frankly, I feel relieved to no longer be in limbo, to be able to commit to other plans for next year.
Has anyone else heard back? Hopefully I wasn't the only one ahaha. I had a recent paranoid nightmare in which it was because they took a second glance at my application and saw all of the glaring flaws that they previously missed...
