MFA Graduate School Admission Results

Got Waitlisted for this program after applying for three straight years. I'll be more than thrilled if I get off this waitlist as my mind is already breaking. I pray and wish for the best. Congrats to all accepted applicants. 5r/0a/1w/1p

“…you have been placed on a short waitlist for admission…” what a dream

I’m on an 8-person waitlist for 4 spots in poetry

"Thank you for applying to Hunter’s MFA in Creative Nonfiction. This is *not* a letter of acceptance, but I’m happy to tell you that you have made it to the next round for prospective candidates for the Hunter College MFA class in creative nonfiction for 2025-2027. We accept a maximum of six students each year and the next step in our process is for us to have a chance to talk with you about what you envision as your book-length project—essays, memoir or otherwise—and to answer any questions you might have about the program."

"Please don't take this decision as discouragement about your writing. Our program is very small, and we received over 200 applications, which means we've had to turn away many promising applicants. We read your application with great interest, and we truly wish it were possible to accommodate more writers at this time. "

No idea about funding yet, but this is my first acceptance after 8 straight rejections so I'm at least happy about that!
