Brown - one phoned poetry acceptance reported.
Brooklyn College - someone reported a rejection in fiction.
Columbia - poetry and fiction acceptances and rejections.

I finally decided to just call Michigan. The acceptance and rejection letters were sent on Monday, so if you've heard nothing like me, hang on. You'll probably have a letter by the end of the week (or beginning of the next, if the mail is slow.)

FYI

Arkansas has a rolling-style admissions process. There's not a uniform decision date--applicants get a letter approximately six weeks after they apply.

Anybody figured out what the difference is between "applied" and "pending" on the UMass admissions website? (Mine says the latter, and I'm convinced it's the Admissions Website of Doom telling me to let go of my silly dreams.)

For those of you who received either acceptances or rejections through snail-mail, did the school end up sending it to your permanent or current address? [assuming there is a difference between the two]

I received my first actual mail notice today...from Michigan! I was rejected. 8 more to go. Good luck to everyone else to applied...the letter said something about a record number of people applying this year. Oh, and I applied in fiction.
