Graduate School Admission Results

"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 :)

No email, checked the portal. 0a/0w/3r/8p

Email to check portal. I think the same form rejection used as last year. As there was no contact before I was notified of a portal update, I expected this rejection. Unfortunately, I also really wanted to go to this school. Congrats to those who got in! 1a/4r/17p

Email to check portal. Poems in several top litmags, connections to the program, but also turning 40, only science degrees, etc. Congrats to the new cohort.
