Yeah, I was referring to the USNWR ones, but Chronicle has some and so do other places.

Thanks! And congrats again!

Also accepted today via phone. Now I just need my significant other to be admitted to the creative writing emphasis.

Lyonness, congratulations. I'm also in MT, ajduncting at UM. Whereabouts are you located?

Uhhh. . .I'm not sure about that. The guy I talked to, when I asked about cohort size, mentioned some numbers for MAs, but he didn't say anything about whether they were being contacted now. I don't think so, though.

Congrats to all of you who were accepted!!

Gosh, I truly hope they haven't notified the MA people yet...

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but the DGS said that everyone with funding for the PhD has been notified.

Did the DGS say anything about funding for MAs or creative writing peeps?

Here's what he wrote:

"Official letters of acceptance will be sent out next week (including students who are on the waitlist). But all applicants who have been offered funding have been notified."

I don't know if this statement was meant to include MA applicants, though.

Have any creative writing people been notified yet?

Creatives: I finally got up the nerve to call today. Acceptance letters went out at the beginning of this week (I know of at least one person who got a letter without a phone call). Rejections are going out today or Monday.

Good luck!

To folks on the English Ph.D. waitlist: I'm going for a campus visit next weekend and will notify them of my decision shortly after. I'm leaning to declining, so I hope the funding gets transferres soon if I do.

oooooooh this is so exciting! Is anyone else having heart palpitations every time they open the mailbox? I know I shouldn't be so anxious, because I already have one acceptance, but I can't help it! I want to know, DANGIT!!!

Has anyone visited campus yet, and, if so, how did the visit go?

I've never been to Salt Lake, and I plan to visit and sit in on some seminars at the beginning of April.

i found out today i didn't get in. they said letters going out this week.

but no worries, I have an offer elsewhere.

I visited and loved it, unexpectedly. It is making my decision far more difficult. PM me if you have questions. I'm also pretty familiar with SLC.

How did you find out? Did you get in touch with them?
