good luck all! Do know it's less than 2% acceptance rate this year so don't be so hard on yourself if you are not accepted. I think due to Covid last year, many more applied for this year. Fingers crossed for all though!

"Next week", as in the next 5 days? or next week, meaning the following week?

This terminology has always confused me. 

[Blue-latte]

Yes, they're expecting to be mailing the decisions this current week, as in the next five days. That's what they said.

not here. I thought today would be the day for rejection letters but nothing today. Do you know anyone else who applied?

 

 

[Blue-latte]

I don't know anyone else. I emailed Skowhegan and they said they don't have a specific day for when they'd release the decisions. But they said hopefully this week. 

Is it always that they send rejections then acceptance?

I think so. It appears that way from other years

 

[firstofthemonth]

Going a little bit crazy over here.

[Blue-latte]

I hear you!

[Paintingal]

it's definitely frustrating. I don't understand why this is taking so long...

[Blue-latte]

They're taking longer because of not running the program -COVID etc. So I am assuming a lot more applications to review this year.

That makes sense. I wonder if they are in fact accepting fewer people this year, too (as they said in the letter to potential applicants). 

[Blue-latte]

why are they accepting fewer numbers? 

[Blue-latte]

ok I saw the letter. 

[dramallama_07]

What letter are you guys referring to exactly? Could you post some of it here?

For some reason, Skowhegan's mails go directly to my spam

[Blue-latte]

It’s on their website. Under the tab apply. 

[nycart88]

Ok it's now Thursday. I am thinking today will be rejection letters tomorrow acceptance?? I kind of want this over with one way or the other. The waiting is crazy. 

[Blue-latte]

Ha. Why not write to them and ask? They’re quite responsive with email.

I did once. I don't want to keep doing that. 

[Blue-latte]

I think it’s fair to check one more time. I checked twice. So I really can’t do it anymore !

Because everyone gets a private room this year due to covid. Which is great except the chances are now even slimmer.
