Hi! Looks like no waitlist movement (or acceptances yet) for WVU fiction on the draft. Not sure if acceptances just haven't been uploaded or if they haven't gone out yet, but hopefully it is the latter.

For those who got rejected/waitlisted from WVU, did your portal update with your application status? I applied fiction and still haven't heard anything back, but it still says "in review" in my portal...

this is so real, i feel like this has taken 20 years off my life

It did haha, but I'm glad that I know now as opposed to dragging it out! And thank you!

looks like one interview and one waitlist

I just checked my portal and it showed an update that said I had been rejected (boo). It might be different though because I'm not international. Either way, best of luck to you!

☹️🫶 Thank you sm :(((((

@bluecarpet @Scribe @Jitterbug98 Thank you ☹️ I also feel so silly for like running to this forum to be like "boo hoo feel bad for me" so I appreciate the kind words. I keep reminding myself it'll be okay but I always seem to forget how to do that when I receive a rejection lol.

I genuinely don't think I'm going to get even a single waitlist. Like, not to be that person that just complains, but there are only like two more schools that I haven't heard from yet that haven't already sent out waitlists. Idk, just feels embarrassing to be rejected from 15 different programs. And like, I know getting rejected doesn't mean I'm a bad writer, but getting rejected from FIFTEEN programs has got to mean something.

Do we know how many waitlists Virginia Tech sends out for fiction?

hi!! also a senior in college, also got knocked out by utk first round!! sending good vibes your way, i hope we both get in somewhere, but it'll be okay in the end if we don't!

queen trust me I am 😭😭😭

miffy if you're out there...I wish I were you Also literally same. I genuinely do not think I have a shot this round. Five rejections, four soft rejections, and barely any hope left.

Looks like there was a poetry waitlist on March 9
