Ydrl Posted March 5, 2021 Posted March 5, 2021 Hey, if you all want, I can share (via google) my spreadsheet that I used to keep track of all the colleges I wanted to apply to. A sample of things on the spreadsheets include: Deadlines, professors I’d want to work with, local apartments costs compared to stipends, SOP requirements, manuscript requirements. All that jazz. If anyone wants it, DM me and I’ll send you the link.

Expand I'm right there with ya. I'm not super happy with what I'm doing career wise... I want to run away elsewhere and be a writer. That is all. Even if we don't get in anywhere, I hope our situations still change for the better. Or if we end up in the same program, we can smoke together :') ❤️ mess_mess, teasel and lunch 3

funfettuccine Posted March 5, 2021 Posted March 5, 2021 I think what’s really killing me is the crumb of possibility that came with being waitlisted. Like OK, cool, somebody likes my work and that rules, but am I gonna get to move and do school stuff? I just wanna KNOW. lunch, FairleyAlfy, tippybug and 2 others 5

rcsteel Posted March 5, 2021 Posted March 5, 2021 Saw a VCU waitlist on Draft but never saw any acceptances. Maybe they told people to be hush about it. Anyone else hear from them? panglosian 1
Ydrl Posted March 5, 2021 Posted March 5, 2021 My impatience went away for a bit, but now it’s back. I just want to know where I’m going and what the funding situation is. TroyMcClure, tippybug and largeheartedboy 3
