Yeah I would love to know numbers.

Yeah they're so behind last year's schedule that I'm wondering if acceptances went out already and weren't reported. Edited February 19 by pananoprodigy

Earliest acceptances were early january, but some were in late feb. they have such spread out data that I don't know what to make of it. maybe they decided to not do that this year and follow a more typical schedule. but yeah, i find it hard to believe that they've already done it if there are no reports this year, given how many there were last year

OctopusCactus Posted February 19 Posted February 19 5 hours ago, exvat said: Reflecting on "fit" for a program, it occured to me that there may not be many programs "for" me. Lotta red/orange flags (none legal) to American culture and universities, which can't exactly be ignored on a CV, in my personal statement, or poems. My readers and recommenders get me, but they know me—ya know? Pretty much the only "green" flag I can find in my overarching story is that I've survived and am doing great these days; but yowza is my past kinda extra, to the degree that I'm worried there isn't a cohort "for" me. Anyone else feel similarly? Or resonate and can report from the other side of program acceptance? I initially struggled in college, which left me with a checkered transcript before I dropped out for a few years. During my drop-out years I worked a, uh, colorful job which I wrote about in my app package. I got into multiple competitive MFA programs in the last cycle. I think acknowledging that you have a wild or challenging backstory can be okay in this context, or even advantageous, as long as you can demonstrate (not just state) that you are in a solid, stable place today. exvat and PsychPoet 2

PsychPoet Posted February 20 Posted February 20 I had a super-late decision to apply this year (around Dec 1st, LOL), so none of this was on my radar earlier in the season. Can someone let me know around when most application pages refresh and go live for the next cycle? Thanks in advance!
