Is it possible this is due to their open "religious affiliation"? This ended up being the reason I didn't apply after reading about the student cohort there on reddit, it was also my first reason to post here because I was so taken aback by that in the application process 😅 It's looking really bleak with some of the schools... I've been holding my breath for WashU, it's a program that really speaks to me, so the fact that it might be cut... then again as an international I'm starting to think my status might also be extremely precarious in the US if I was to get in anywhere? Not that anyone has the answers to this but it's starting to make me super anxious. This has been my dream for so long.
kpoetrottenapplecore Posted February 24 Posted February 24 is university of arizona out with poetry yet? i haven't seen anything from them
decayingballads21 Posted February 24 Posted February 24 hey so I saw 2 UNLV notifs in draft a while ago but none since then, anyone have any idea if they’re still notifying people or if they’re done? last year there were some acceptances that came out in mid March so I’m just wondering

It looks like this year they called two poetry admits the same day so I'm guessing that maybe they are doing it by genre? But I have no idea Edit to addendum because I don't want to spam the forum: AHHHH I scream with anticipation. I'm crossing my fingers and my whole body for good news regarding a GTA position from CSU, maybe today since someone on Friday got offered a position. I feel so close to the finish line but it's still just out of my grasp and it's making my stomach churn. Hoping for a flood of good news for all of us today.

I can't say for sure since I don't know the intricacies of NIH funding, but Notre Dame has a HUGE private endowment (50% greater than that of WashU.)

Based on past Gradcafe years, UVA almost always releases their rejections on a Sunday or Monday, but it's normally the first Sunday or Monday in March, so it's still about a week early for them. momeraths 1

roomservice Posted February 24 Posted February 24 I called Vanderbilt decisions when they came out so I'm gonna try again.... WashU and NYU let's go vilum 1

WashU and NYU let's go Idk if you’ve looked at the previous replies, but WashU has allegedly paused admission for grad students coming into School of Arts and Sciences (which houses English dept and thus mfa). So, they’re probably waiting on an institutional level to see if they have to make cuts to admissions.
suitcase 1234 Posted February 24 Posted February 24 anyone else get anything from hunter? saw 1 interview posted on draft, thinking maybe all of them have gone out and the others just haven't been reported yet? kinda interpreting as rejection either way lol
Mystic_Sunshine Posted February 24 Posted February 24 What places are people still waiting on? I've got 8 left (I still have some soft rejections).

prufrock_ Posted February 24 Posted February 24 Dang, between iowa and notre dame, i've picked up quite a few soft rejections lately. I started this round with a waitlist that really gave me hope, but that's been my only good news the entire time. But! I still have quite a few pending schools, and as we always say, you only need one. We march on. cooliejulie86, AyvaM, Mystic_Sunshine and 2 others 5
epr Posted February 24 Posted February 24 George Mason (which seems to have poetry & nonfiction out, but no fiction yet), Virginia Tech, UMD, UVA, Rutgers-Camden, and Brown. Really crossing my fingers a funded offer comes through pananoprodigy and Mystic_Sunshine 2

I've received no word from UNLV, CU Boulder, Maryland, UVA (Which I know is usually March, LSU (which is also late march ah), New Writers Project, Virginia Tech. I'm also waiting for Mississippi because I made it round 2. I didn't look up much about CSU's program but I love Colorado. So, hope you get good news from them soon! And best of luck with the others everything bagel lover 1
vilum Posted February 24 Posted February 24 I'm currently waitlisted at vanderbilt (no way that's gonna happen) and pending on NYU and Brown. Should've applied to more schools but I got so overwhelmed with the process so... for next year lol pananoprodigy 1
MegHe Posted February 24 Posted February 24 9 minutes ago, Mystic_Sunshine said: What places are people still waiting on? I've got 8 left (I still have some soft rejections). (Technically Iowa but counting it as a soft rejection atm), UVA, NYU, University of Oxford (interviewed last week), and University of Edinburgh. Everything is fine 🔥 I'm fine ☠️ Mystic_Sunshine 1
