Poster below: I do know that with Iowa's admissions process, students, fellows, read first rounds. There are between 1000 - 1400 manuscripts to go through. The pool gets smaller and smaller as it goes up the chain. Samantha Chang doesn't read until the pool has been considerably reduced. While she signs every response letter, if you didn't get a personal note, there's a good likelihood she didn't actually read your manuscript. So, I wouldn't take it as a personal rejection from her. You should certainly try again in future, when you feel ready.

Basic letter. No special note. A lot of people here have received a special note from the Lan Samantha Chang and it makes me feel like my application and portfolio must have truly been that bad. If so many people are getting special notes, then there must be a few of us who really had stunk. I don’t know if that means that I should even apply next year, given that I didn’t receive such a note. Has anyone applied again after a basic letter? Any personalized response after that?

Form rejection with a handwritten addition: "Thank you for the very strong application", which is a kind affirmation that I do appreciate.

To the ASU poster from earlier, I received an email from Jennifer Irish about my rejection on Sunday. It's kind of a funny email because it never explicitly rejects the applicant. Anyways, maybe check your spam folder??

Accepted with partial funding, but will still probably cost more than my unfunded acceptance. 2a/0r/2p
