The admissions counselor was super friendly and kind. Had a virtual meeting today so I could get a feel for the school. Not a lot of funding, but that seems more like a budget thing than a me thing. Looks like I can't apply for assistantships until at least the summer. I think I would be happy at Brandeis, if I can afford to go.

Got an email from DGS saying that my application was impressive enough for a waitlist, but not enough for an outright acceptance. Not having fun anymore and reevaluating pursuing grad school 1a/1w/5r/3p

Phone call by DGS/POI, 2a/4r/0w/2p

IGNORE INTERVIEW - Has anyone received any news? The website says the virtual open house for prospective English graduate students is today, so I guess it's safe to assume it's a rejection? :(

Ignore Interview. I wrote to the Grad coordinator asking for an update, she mentioned that the committee is still making decisions, and she does not have any information beyond that. Hope this helps for those waiting!

I applied to the creative writing track but was accepted to the academic track without any funding
