Lit program not do interviews? @Cotton Joe, I just did. Well, I am supposed to meet with faculty and grad students so there is the implication that an interview is involved. I'm just excited

jvvne Posted January 30, 2018 Posted January 30, 2018 Just accepted to SUNY Buffalo No word on funding but still feels great to have an acceptance under my belt. To those with experience, does it typically take a while between the general grad school acceptance and the departmental notification, and then funding? I'm trying not to drive myself nuts hoping for funding! la_mod, Keri, Warelin and 2 others 5

I was nominated for a fellowship but won't know the results until the end of February or early March. But each school is probably different!

I figured it would be at least a day--I'm currently in an MFA program, and I remember it took over two months for me to hear back about funding was hoping that maybe PhD notifications happened faster since they accept fewer people in the first place. Still thrilled to already be hearing back at all!
semioclasm Posted January 30, 2018 Posted January 30, 2018 Longtime lurker, first time poster, but I just got my first notification, and it was an acceptance to my top choice---SUNY Buffalo! I'm elated! This is all after I felt like I wasn't going to get in anywhere because I haven't heard from Madison or Chicago. Ufffdaaa and jelris 2

Mellowyellow Posted January 30, 2018 Posted January 30, 2018 Congrats @semioclasm, @jvvne, and @JustPoesieAlong! This is a big week! OceansAreBlue, semioclasm and jvvne 3
semioclasm Posted January 30, 2018 Posted January 30, 2018 Congrats to all of the other acceptances! Quick question for those of you who know how this works: Now that I'm accepted, the application portal brings me to an accept/deny admission page. How long do I have to accept? I don't have any other offers yet, and while Buffalo is my top choice, there's currently no word on funding. I've heard people mention April 15th quite a bit around here––is that the deadline for all schools?

Yes, the Council of Graduate Schools set April 15th as the universal background. You can learn more about it here: http://cgsnet.org/april-15-resolution HOWEVER, there may be one or two programs that use different dates. I don't see how that'd be possible, but crazier things have happened. Perhaps someone with direct knowledge can weigh in on this.
