is anyone else waiting to hear back from northern michigan? they're my last school and i feel like i've been waiting forever for news

CNF, and it was a form rejection (which is fine, given how many applicants they have to notify)

just got my iowa rejection, slay 💅

got accepted to colorado! no funding unfortunately, and the nonresident tuition is... pricey for sure. how do we feel about unfunded/low-funded programs? is the juice worth the squeeze?

it's definitetly an option, and i took that route as a backup, but after getting some acceptances, i can tell you that there is significantly less funding for MAs than MFAs. if i accepted any of the MA in literature programs i applied to, i'd be taking on tens of thousands of dollars of more debt. unless you're really passionate about literature or plan to get a phd, i don't know how helpful the degree would be

speak of the devil, there's a csu acceptance on the board. has anyone seen anything about colorado state on draft??

so sorry to hear about the rejection! oregon state's program is just so tiny that even the top 5% of applicants are fighting tooth and nail for a waitlist spot. sending good vibes for wvu!

did anyone else apply to colorado state? i haven't heard anything from them but because of the competitive funding i wonder if they'll have a larger pool of waitlists/acceptances

is anyone else waiting to hear back from WUSTL? i saw that fiction acceptances went out a few weeks ago, and some rejections have been posted since then, but i haven't heard anything and my portal still says it's in review. good sign? bad sign? i'm so sick of the wait haha

it was by email! good luck, please let us know when you hear back!

i got waitlisted for OSU! i'm absolutely ecstatic, and it's my top choice for grad school. if anyone got an acceptance and plans to go somewhere else, please reach out to the department quickly! it's my dream school and i'm shaking with excitement right now!!! omg

yeah, same here. i feel like i used up all my creative energy for applications, and now i'm too busy with life and the constant waiting to get anything done. fingers crossed we all get good news (and some inspiration and energy to write!!)

i've seen almost nothing coming out for CNF :')) i wonder if it means there are more CNF applicants this year (or maybe a lack of funding for CNF programs, which is equally terrifying)

OMG, congrats!!! that's amazing

Do you know if it's for fiction, poetry, or CNF?
