Yet another school that had demonstrably picked its entire class/waitlist weeks ago but doesn't mind wasting everyone else's time (NRPI).

Ecstatic, this is the only non-rejection I've gotten!

notified about waitlist via email! only 2 fiction spots, so don't know what the chances are i'll get off it, but this changes everything

Email to check the website. Didn't sting as much as it would have since I'm deciding between a couple of fully-funded offers, but still, the lure of the Big City is just out of reach haha

Fuck JHU

Know from Draft (someone emailed the program head) that their class has been picked for at least several weeks now. Decision letter in portal, complete with copy-paste name typos. But hey, NRPI.

6a/1r/1p

Rejected but got accepted elsewhere in the city! 1a/2r/0w/4p

Nice note from program director updating me on my status. I thought for sure I'd been rejected because I hadn't heard anything! No info volunteered by size/rank, but they did mention applications were quite competitive this year.

Creative nonfiction; $46k fellowship offered.

Letter dated 3/5, handwritten note saying "Thanks for the strong work"
