MDP Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 Man. I left my book at home today so have nothing to do during this lull at work but refresh the Results page and stare at my phone/inbox. Can't even focus on Neopets. Pain gagne 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuey Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 I sorta thought there'd be more Iowa fiction acceptances. Could it really be that only 3 of the 20 accepted frequent Draft and Grad Cafe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it's not impossible that everyone was notified and only a few posted. There are definitely folks who get accepted on there who don't say anything. But it's unlikely that there are that many.

They've been known to notify people of fellowship acceptances as late as early March. Not much rhyme or reason to it, unfortunately!

This sounds about right, my feeling (unfounded upon any kind of fact except observing general trends from previous years, and also as someone not applying in fiction) is that there'll be 1 or 2 more fiction rounds of notifications.

gagne Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 I’ve been waiting to hear back from Pitt (Columbia seems to release midMarch and Brown’s admissions stated midMarch was when decisions are due to be released) and read somewhere that rejections come in the mail??  I’m having Iowa Young Writers Workshop flashbacks.

Sydup Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 Has anyone heard from the University of Arizona, Tucson for Creative Writing Fiction? I saw that on Feb. 17, one acceptance for fiction went out. Did anyone else apply and have they heard back? It says in the portal that there are no current next steps, and that they will contact if new actions require attention. Does that translate to: "We are only notifying those who are accepted?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does that translate to: "We are only notifying those who are accepted?" it looks like this year they've only accepted 7 students. On draft, it looks like both acceptances and waitlists have come out for all genres. Unfortunately, as someone who didn't get any notification also, i believe that if you didn't get notified of an acceptance / waitlist by now, you can assume to be rejected.

maryak99 Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 does cornell notify acceptances by calls? their eerie silence on fiction after already having notified poetry ones two days ago is so distressing. or have they notified and i missed it?

They do! I don't think anyone has been notified about Fiction yet. We would've received rejections already -- Cornell tends to send all acceptances and rejections out on the same day in each genre. VillaTheKilla 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CHRISTOPHER QUANG BUI Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 (edited) Has anyone seen anything for fiction regarding UNCG?
