MamaCats Posted February 26 Posted February 26 6 minutes ago, greenleaf said: correct me if i'm wrong: my understanding is NYU admits 20ish per genre per year, more than other programs because full funding is not guaranteed. all the poetry acceptance so far have been phone calls, so it's possible it'll be staggered over a few days for deborah laundau to make all the calls. which means we might be anxious messes through next week... From last year's info - they call the big funding folks, then email. But the emails do extend a while. greenleaf and BowelMovement 1 1

My heart rate gets super high just by being in close proximity to the mailbox and I guess that's my daily cardio exercise. Anyway I find a new way to torture myself every day:) You should sign up for Informed Delivery if in the US! It’s free with USPS on the website. It’ll send pictures of what you’re getting in the mail to your email every morning so you only have to check your mailbox if you need to! Still a form of torture, but may make the mailbox less scary and focus everything to the email LOL 11 minutes ago, A E said: Still no word and it's been over two days now. Has anyone else heard anything? I'm praying that this departure from the norm (rejections not coming out the day after acceptances) means there's still hope, though the fact that there's already a waitlist throws a wrench in this hope... And I’ve been wondering about this! Now I’m wishing whoever was wondering if miffy was lying was right 😭 but I don’t really think that. It is weird there was only one acceptance and one waitlist, though, and then crickets. Those also came out so early compared to previous years and then possible rejections so late. So maybe they’re doing it differently. I don’t know, but I hope we find out soon BowelMovement 1
LouPatt Posted February 26 Posted February 26 Okay, side question: when do JHU rejections come out? Like, why do I feel like I have been waiting for years?

Yup last year people got rejected in mid March which was actually diabolical, so I'm not expecting much from them

I don’t know, but I hope we find out soon Historically, Iowa NWP has sent out its rejections by email, though! And ugh I have been thinking about this miffy every single day since 2/23. Glad I'm not the only one... The fact that on the NWP calendar, it says "Tuesday, February 24, NWP House: 4:30pm: Recruit the Newbies! Help advise the NWP’s newly admitted Class of 2029 about their future plans. Come for an informational meeting with Melissa to find out how you can help" is wreaking havoc on my nervous system.
Jitterbug98 Posted February 26 Posted February 26 Got an interview for Rutgers Newark for fiction! Last year they rejected me so I’m excited since it seems like most interviews at least turn into waitlists jka0124, MamaCats, lisichka and 2 others 5

I don’t think BowelMovement applied for CNF; I was just passing along the info for them! But I think all of us CNF folks are jealous of miffy. In a lot of ways, I had big dreams thinking I would be miffy so I’m keeping an eye on it. Living vicariously through them at the moment. I did not know about the NWP calendar …. That seems so soon if it’s true that they all went out two days ago? It sounds like that’s to find current students to help with the newbies later, not like that meeting occurred then. So maybe Febos is just getting everything in order. Still… the silence all around is just atrocious atm BowelMovement 1

The biggest funding package (Goldwater fellowship, I think) comes out first, and then the others trickle in. longtime lurker who finally made an account....does anyone know about NYU nonfiction??? does it come out similar timing to fiction/poetry? stress sweating over here womanonline 1

For some reason, I thought your post was a reply to mine? Upon rereading, I think you're right about the calendar. Glad that the chance of still getting an acceptance are in fact exceedingly slim and not absolute zero, haha...
