email to check portal. found rejection on portal. I think the rejection might be tiered? Did others get the same rejection? Here's what mine (poetry) said: "Unfortunately, we are unable to offer you a place in the program. However, we wanted to let you know that your application was read with great care and appreciation. It is through the vibrancy and commitment of work like yours that the program is able to depend on an applicant pool of immense talent.
