Spent a lot of time working on the application and even went to meet one of their faculty on campus. Some alumni told me they recruited tens of students last year...Should have spent that time on other schools

"Your application for admission to the Graduate School at Cornell University has been given careful consideration by the Graduate Field of Literatures in English. I'm very sorry to say that we are unable to offer you admission to our M.F.A. graduate program for Fall 2025. This was a very difficult decision, since we received hundreds of applications for very few places in the program. We had to turn down a number of very talented people with very impressive records, many of whom no doubt will go on to distinguished careers. This email will serve as your only notification of your application results. We appreciate your interest in Cornell, and wish you success in your graduate studies. Thank you for sharing your work with us." Congrats to those who got in, and who didn't, hey, we'll get in somewhere, where we're meant to be :)

I had 3 interviews—2 with POIs and 1 with a PhD student—and am currently waiting for the decisions. Is anyone else in the same situation, or has anyone tried contacting the PhD associate director and received a response?
