right? i don't mind an update, but the way it was worded was so vague and unhelpful LOL... i'll let you know if i hear anything else, but same as you: fingers crossed but i'm not getting my hopes up 😕
just heard back from poetry faculty at UIUC that i’m on the waitlist!
i didn’t think i had a chance so this is great news!! still waiting to hear back from 7 other schools… wishing everyone so much luck :’)
EDIT: if anyone has any tips on waitlist formalities (i.e following up w/ the school) or any stories about being on MFA waitlists please let me know!
