I’m probably being rejected from V Tech, Texas, Rutgers, and Florida. UNO isn’t better than New Hampshire. So I’m really just waiting on Maryland, my top school, that my recommenders and I love. I’ve decided I hate notification season more than application or limbo season. Waiting on Rutgers and Maryland too, among others. Can Rutgers just do me a favor and SNIPE ME ALREADY

If anyone knows anything about whether or not I should still hope for VCU, PLEASE LET ME KNOW THANK YOU My VCU rejection (dated April 1st) came on April 3rd by snail mail. Just letting you know. panglosian 1

I finished the app, all I had to do was pay, but I didn’t have the money for that and another program so I didn’t do it. Besides, I don’t want to stay in my own state, an hour and a half from where I live now.

I'm from the Philly area so it was always high on my list, I'm waiting on funding and my other responses to see what my move is though.

There’s a part of me that’s really, really hoping the TAship or the writing assistant job comes through at UNH. Or I get into Maryland. I need answers. panglosian 1

sassydragon Posted March 6, 2021 Posted March 6, 2021 Just woke up to an update on my Notre Dame portal. I was wait listed! So, so happy. I doubt I'll get off the wait list, but I'm a bit relieved since almost every other place has rejected me. In case I don't get in, I'll likely be applying again in a year or two!

Congrats!! ❤️ If I remember correctly, were you the person that had mentioned a month or two ago that you were nervous about applying as an international applicant? If so, I think you just showed yourself you can kick butt, no matter where you come from--congrats, dear. ❤️ Edited March 6, 2021 by eternalwhitenights sassydragon 1
PurgatoryLobby Posted March 6, 2021 Posted March 6, 2021 Hi everyone, I’m tired of the many days of living with my overly taut nerves, so I made an account to potentially alleviate my misery. Does anyone know something about how Brown handles Cross Disciplinary admissions? I saw that Poetry and Fiction seem to have separate timelines but is the same true for the Cross Disciplinary track? Sending good fortune to everyone!

Sending good fortune to everyone! I also finally made an account after lurking for days. I was rejected from Northwestern, Cornell & Notre Dame. I am also a Cross Disciplinary applicant to Brown. Hoping for some good news soon. I felt it was my strongest application overall.
