Alymacgreen Posted March 9, 2011 Posted March 9, 2011 Has anyone heard from NYU in the creative writing MFA program? That's my first choice, but I've only seen waitlist posts so far. So far I'm out of Syracuse and Iowa Writers' Workshop and in MN State University--Mankato. Still waiting for University of MN--Twin Cities. People have posted that acceptances have gone out, but has anybody gotten one?
Hopeful in CO Posted March 11, 2011 Posted March 11, 2011 I was waitlisted at NYU on the seventh of March for fiction. It is also my first choice so I'm really excited and hopeful that I'll get in. My thinking is that you don't know what's going to happen until you get that response. Good luck!
ThisPieceisMine Posted March 14, 2011 Posted March 14, 2011 Congrats on the waitlist. I applied to MFA fiction at NYU and Columbia, and (reloads email yet again) haven't heard from either... Not sure if I should be giving up hope yet - anybody have any sense if all of the acceptances have gone out already or not?
michpc Posted March 14, 2011 Posted March 14, 2011 I'm not an MFA hopeful, but just some words of encouragement: I saw a bunch of acceptances via email to PennDesign over a week ago, and so I was expecting bad news on the website notification day, but it turns out I'm in! So don't give up hope even if others have already received acceptances!
ThisPieceisMine Posted March 14, 2011 Posted March 14, 2011 I just called NYU to check if they were done with their notifications - they said they are in middle of sending out their answers by email, and I should continue to check my email until mid-March....
ThisPieceisMine Posted March 14, 2011 Posted March 14, 2011 And.... just called Columbia (NYC) - they said "decisions haven't been made yet, I can expect to hear in the next few weeks". This is weird, becuase people have been posting acceptances from them already... so, who knows what that means...
Hopeful in CO Posted March 18, 2011 Posted March 18, 2011 I heard Columbia was accepting over time so just because you haven't heard that doesn't mean you're not in. I applied there also. NYU is my first choice but it would be awesome to work with Gary Shteyngart.
Eternal Optimist Posted July 2, 2011 Posted July 2, 2011 Hello I was wondering if any of you could mail me the sample that you guys had sent for the admission. Would be really helpful. Thanks. My email Id is teena87@gmail.com
