glitter_mntn Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Hello all and hope the apps are treating you well! Has anyone applied to Hunter and been as confused as I am about the apparent lack of space in the application portal to upload a writing sample? There just doesn't seem to be a place for it. Upon visiting the department website I've just seen that a writing sample isn't listed as a required part of the application. Can that possibly be the case? I've checked the grad admissions FAQ as well to no avail. Anyone know anything about this? There are places for me to upload other documents, like a resume; I wonder if I should just sneak it in there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ereissoup Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 When in doubt, contact the department about it. You could always mail it in, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helpmegradcafe Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 I had the same issue. I have emailed them to ask but they haven't responded.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mirop Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 You've probably already realized this, but a writing sample is not part of the application for Hunter. I'm in the program, and I wasn't asked to submit one. It's a great program! Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glitter_mntn Posted February 24, 2014 Author Share Posted February 24, 2014 Hey Mirop, thanks! I did figure this out eventually. I was concerned because I visited in December and met with the DGS, who told me it "used to be optional" but was no longer....which made me think it was now required. The department secretary cleared this up. Hopefully this thread helps someone else next year! Glad you like the program! It's actually my top choice so I'm excited to hear back!
