I think so, (that acceptances and waitlists for fiction havent gone out yet) there are people who still haven’t heard which makes me think they’re still in it

Yeah last year it took a couple days for them to all roll out. Same boat. Assuming I’ll get my real R from them sometime in the next 24 hours 🤷🏼‍♀️

Samesies

My guess is nyu will be next week. Idk about the other two

I haven’t seen any but they also take so few we may or may not hear if they do

FWIW I don’t think I got my JHU rejection until 2/15 last year

Yeah I figure it’s just a matter of time. This happened last year with JHU it took FOREVER for their software to make its way through the list

What genre?

These slow burn poetry acceptances are killing me. Where are the fiction results?

I only have NYU related info. Last year they admitted people 2/26 (some people got calls and then there was a big wave of emails that went out over the following days). Then I got a waitlist decision 3/7. Rejections rolled out 3/20. I got in off the waitlist 4/24 and had until 5/9 to decide if I wanted the spot. Hope this helps!

Yes. Speaking of, my northwestern portal when I click into checklist says it’s still awaiting materials even though I completed everything and it says application submitted on the main page. Anyone else?

I really thought there would be some news today. Or Saturday because I made it to Feb. And instead I’m just waiting with the same amount of info (nothing minus Northwestern calling a poet yesterday which isn’t my genre). It’s gonna be a long February.

Amazing!! Do we know if they do interviews for all verticals or just playwriting?

Could you talk a little bit about why your program isn’t a good fit? It would be helpful to hear if you’re comfortable sharing. TIA!

Finished my apps yesterday! And now the waiting game begins…

I’m also baaack for round two. And mostly done with the admin work for this year and generally feeling calmer so far? We’ll see if that sticks. Applying for fiction to: Iowa, Michigan, Michener, UVA, Brown, Vanderbilt, Syracuse, Northwestern Litowitz, Montana, UCI, Stegner (lol), NYU

Maybe we’ll land in the same fully funded place next year 🤞🏼

I think I’m right there with you. Just got off the NYU waitlist and saving money for another 1.5 years even at the job I hate sounds better than giving them a penny

Congratulations!! Did they give any guidance on how long you have to decide if you take the spot etc?

Has anyone heard anything from NYU re: waitlist? They’re so weirdly underrepresented on draft given how many spots they have

Omg I fantasize about this all the time. Love to see it could happen!

Ok this is probably a controversial take because it is the less fiscally conservative move but I wouldn’t move back in with your parents. The year(s) between now and starting your program are your life too and (me projecting my own family dynamic) living with your parents is not going to be super pleasant? In theory your other debt will go into forbearance while you’re in a program so you’re just kicking the can down the road but personally I would just keep living your current life and maybe try to get a side hustle or do something else to make up that $20k.

Congratulations!! Have you made a decision between NWP and UCI?

I got an NYU waitlist a couple weeks ago. I think in previous years they waited until around 3/23 to send out rejections.

Yes, got delivered this morning (I’m in NYC)
