Form letter. Coming from MFA in poetry, publications are all creative, not academic.

4r/1w/4p

Nice and direct collective form email to all those who are "placed high on the waitlist." For future reference/pandemic data, the email said "For reasons related to the pandemic, we were only able to make 13 offers of admission (from a pool of exactly 300 candidates), and we made those decisions based at least as much on the program's need for equitable field distribution as we did on the relative merits of our best applicants." We'll see what happens! 3a/1w/6r/4p.

Polite form letter. If you've been accepted and plan on declining, please take as long as you want to do so because having options available is a pretty sweet feeling, and you deserve to ride that sweet, sweet wave.

GPA is MA. Like everybody else, I am begging you to reject your admission to CUNY as soon as you can. 1 publication, 1 conference.

Please let them know if you intend to decline :))

received an email from Siraj Ahmed stating I was waitlisted. If you are not going, please, please, please let them know. I'd kill to be there :)

Unsurprised by this, as I was accepted to another English MSt at Oxford!

Didn't receive an e-mail, just checked the portal and saw that there was an update. I'm so gutted; congrats to all of those who were accepted. 0A/0R/2W/3P

Didn't receive an email, but saw a status update when I checked the portal. Congrats to those who got in!

I got an email from the chair that the program reduced the cohort size "quite markedly" this year--I'm wondering if anybody got in at all?
