| Miami University Of Ohio (Oxford) | English Rhetoric & Composition, PhD (F18) | Rejected via E-mail on 20 Apr 2018 | A | 20 Apr 2018 | - Utter lack of professionalism in the department. E-mails and calls went unanswered. Did not receive notice of application's status until after the 18th of April. Would not recommend applying to this institution in the future to any applicants and would caution to stay away. Will not apply here next year.

♦ | I | 20 Apr 2018 | - Finally found out myself rejected from the website. Though there was no email notification, the rejection letter attached to the site was extremely nice. I will be starting my PhD in a much warmer area. Good luck to all.
|
| Miami University (of Ohio) | (English) - (rhet/comp), Masters (F18) | Rejected via E-mail on 19 Apr 2018 | A | 20 Apr 2018 | - About a month ago, emailed to find out I was on the waitlist and was encouraged to give them more time. There was no official waitlist notification sent out, though. This was a form letter rejection from the graduate school.

♦ | A | 20 Apr 2018 | - I was on the waitlist until today. The offer came with no funding and no tuition waiver. Unfortunately I can't afford to pay for the program, so I reluctantly declined. Congratulations to those accepted with funding!
|
| Miami (Ohio) | (English) - Creative Writing (Poetry), MFA (F18) | Rejected via E-mail on 19 Apr 2018 | A | 19 Apr 2018 | - Finally received a response from Miami University today. I applied over four months ago, so I'm surprised it took this long for a decision. I've already committed to a program though (April 15th deadline). This is the only school I regret applying to, as it was essentially a waste of $50. Maybe next year they will be more considerate of their applicants and the deadlines other schools have in place. 4a/0w/6r
