Had a call with the director, who told me on the call.

Called by director first.

Asking to defer enrollment, seeing if they can give me funding (I applied WAY late in the season)

Low-residency, Pan-European MFA.

Deferred until Spring 2026. Low-res MFA

I was admitted (late) to New School's MFA, since I applied after the priority deadline. Asked if I could defer until 2026.

Rejected from waitlist, womp womp.

Rejected off the waitlist in April, then an offer unexpectedly in June! So excited.

Automated acceptance email from grad division came at 4 AM!

Received no notification at all via email, phone, mail... nothing, all through the end of April. Kept checking the application portal, it still read "awaiting decision". Wrote twice in April to the contact email for MFA Creative Writing as I had other offers pending and needed to make a decision; one contact was via the portal, other via direct email, and still received no response. After May 1, thinking maybe I was on the wait list and they were waiting to see if a space opened up after others replied to offers, I finally contacted graduate admissions, who said the department had not yet notified them to send my decision, and they suggested I contact someone else in the Creative Writing department, which I did. Here was the response: "I'm sorry you have not received word from the Graduate School yet. Notices should have been sent out a month ago. Perhaps we have the wrong email address for you on file. I'm sorry to say that your application was not advanced to admission for the 2025 academic year. We hope you will consider reapplying next year and wish you the best of luck in all your future endeavors." Bogus - they had my email on file and no notice was posted on portal. Glad I have another offer to accept and don't have to deal with a program that can't give the courtesy of a response to applicants after multiple attempts to get an answer on a decision.

sent me an email to the portal, expected a rejection because no interview in february. still pretty gutted regardless.

Rejected off the waitlist. Congrats to everyone who got in!
