Re: [dawnbuth] To everyone:	Can't Post

I actually know a couple of alumni from the program, and they both had great things to say about it and are now published authors (not that this happens to everyone, but it does seem like a lot of the graduates go on to publish books.) It's not a low-res program but it only requires two classes per semester (a workshop and literature class, each once a week at night) and also this "writers life colloquium" where you attend a minimum of 7 readings and/or events a semester. I live in New York City now (which is where the school is) and wanted to stay in the area, so it works out well for me. I start in the Fall!

I applied for Fall 08 and sent out the apps at the end of February, so I should find out in a little less than two weeks.

See, that's the way to do it-keep the waiting time to a minimum. I submitted all 5 of my applications in November! I heard from Pine Manor on Christmas Eve (nice present!) And I heard from Spalding in early January. But I didn't hear from Vermont or Lesley until Feb. and Hamline was in March! It was a long wait! Good luck with all of them!
