Rutgers University-Camden

Creative Writing Poetry, MFA (F23)

Rejected via E-mail on 18 Apr 2023

Note

Despite being super late, the emailed rejection letter was actually very nice (compared to other schools). It says, "Thank you for your application to the MFA program at Rutgers University—Camden. We've read your application with great interest. Unfortunately, we're unable to recommend your admission at this time. Competition for admission was especially intense this year. Our program is very small, which means we had to turn away many promising applicants. Please don't take the admissions decision as discouragement about your writing. We truly wish it were possible to accommodate more writers at this time. Please accept all our best wishes for your future work. Thank you again."
