If Rutgers Camden accepted 5 applicants to each genre, they are done with acceptances, as I believe 5 new students in each genre is their target. Oh well.

Got a nice email informing me I’m in the top 10 applicants and waitlisted! Hoping this goes well!

Got the nicest email from Doug Unger. Really hope this turns into an acceptance!

I was sitting on my bed brushing my teeth when I noticed the email. Skimmed for the rejection and instead found myself (kindly) waitlisted and began sobbing (while foaming toothpaste). I don't care if nothing comes of this and the offer stagnates in waitlist-limbo. I'm shocked they've even considered me. Thank you UA Fayetteville for the ego boost. I needed it.

To those wondering about Camden -- I got an email the night of March 1st from Pat Rosal, which was followed up with a phone call from a faculty member in my genre last week. There was no pre-admittance interview this year. It sounds like 5 have been accepted in each genre. I hope this helps!

0a/2r/1w/2p. Postmarked March 5th.

Received a call from Gregory Spatz offering acceptance and a GSA position. 4a/5r/5p

I also have heard nothing and am also curious at what point it is acceptable, if at all, to email them and ask about response time.

All thee schools - Minnesota Mankato, Hollins, NC Wilmington - offer my full funding, but Hollins is 2 years the other two are three years long. I just wish I had some info on the programs themselves. I know NC Wilmington has a reputation for being innovative, Minnesota Mankato is mentioned in the "top 25 underrated programs" and they seem super nice, and Hollins used to be great, now that seems uncertain. My primary concerns are quality and funding - latter is similar with all three.

Agree with the last poster. The 2 vs 3 year funding is what makes programs like University of Michigan so amazing. A third year fellowship with full funding and time to focus on writing. Definitely consider that a 3 year program (like Michigan or Syracuse etc) is actually offering you much more $$$ overall than a 2 year program (even if it's less each year).

Anyone familiar with the reputation of Stonecoast and perhaps the program? How does it compare to full-res programs? Is it looked down on because it is low-res? Thanks!

Anyone familiar with the Stonecoast program's reputation and perhaps the program? How does it compare to full-res programs? I'm so confused about low-res programs. Are they looked down on because they are low-res?

Well, thank you for letting us know. Everyone is so anxious, it is nice to have news, even if the news is not good news.

Was called 3/1 and offered a spot, called 3/13 and offered funding. Absolutely ecstatic!

Personal email from the director. "To sum, you have been enthusiastically accepted." 3a/2r/3p

To the person saying Hollins is no longer as "reputable" as they were: please elaborate. Also, are you talking about the program as a whole or the fiction program specifically? I have received nothing but positive feedback from people I've discussed it with.

I agree with poster regarding improbably fast turnaround time. Their deadline is March 1st!

Thank you for the advice on Hollins. My current options are: Hollins, NC Wilmington, Minnesota Mankato (I've been accepted to Umass Boston and UNO as well but without adequate funding). How do these programs rank compared to each other and in general?

All the Warren Wilson acceptances have gone out to my knowledge - folks have until the 19th to commit, so I expect the waitlist and rejections may go out after that.
