Wellllllp brown/hunter/u of houston can suck it if they decide to accept me this late in the game. I officially accepted my spot for fiction at NCSU and withdrew from U of Oregon's waitlist. Feels really good to just have it all settled!

Awesome. I'm considering them a soft rejection, but don't know anything about the timeline for hunter or houston. i didn't apply to brown. 

when you know, you know. hunter definitely won't give you the cabbage ncsu does anyway.

Yeah, I don't think they've released decisions, but it's hard not to expect a no anyway. I don't think I'd want to move for any of these programs regardless?

When you know you know for sure! Definitely wouldn't spend NYC living cost extortion $$ (+ the half I'd be on the hook for at Hunter as a non resident year 1) when I'm already cozy in NC.

My goodness whoever got into UW-Bothell (congrats!!!) gave me the biggest heart attack of my life when I saw "University of Washington" (with the Bothell cut off) added to the Google sheet.

Would it be bad to email Hunter and ask when they plan to send out acceptances? Also, is emailing a letter to the program director about how much you want to get off the waitlist a bad idea? Do I just need to wait and stop being neurotic..

I recall that last year, someone had received an acceptance from somewhere (I think it was the University of Kentucky?) but either she made a typo on her email address or the university did on their end, so she didn't even know for like many weeks that she had an offer!

(I keep telling myself this about Oregon State, because it seems like all their decisions already went out, and I am still in limbo, even though it doesn't matter in my case.)
