I haven't gotten a formal rejection yet, but I'm assuming it's a no based on how long it's taken them to respond.

Award letter is forthcoming but not received yet

Y1: 1/3 funded; Y2&3: full funding

Accepted via email. Generic letter.

Was not notified, decision letter was posted to the application portal

They did not even email me when they updated my status until 24 hours later, I just saw it when checking the portal, one word "denied"

No GRE, 3.72 undergrad GPA in unrelated subject (class of 2020), 1 official literary publication, volunteer reader for a lit mag. 3r/1a/1p From Rejection notification on status portal: "Please know that the decision is the reflection of a very competitive applicant pool, and we are confident you have the tools to succeed wherever you decide to enroll. We wish you all the best in your studies and beyond." I've heard from other programs that they had an unusually competitive year, even given the extremely selective nature of fiction MFAs.

This was for NWP.

Email to check portal. Sad. 0a/1w/5r/4p

Accepted at 9 low-res programs and picked this one.

low-res program (Stonecoast)

1 of 2 waitlisted applicants to Digital/Cross-Disciplinary... who is the other?!

"I am writing to let you know that you are on the waitlist for admission to our MFA program. We had an extraordinary number of applications this cycle, and admissions decisions were very difficult. We are a small program, and we offer only eight spots total (which are fully funded) across three genres. Obviously, we were very impressed with your application." 0a/3w/5r/2p
