I can hardly believe it. There were a whole lot of last-minute waitlist shenanigans over the weekend, but when I got the offer yesterday, I didn't hesitate to take it. The program has everything I want and more, it's close to Greg's family, and I loved the campus (even if I wasn't nuts about Ames - nothing's perfect, right?) It's fully funded with a lower teaching load than the other two schools I was considering and a higher stipend than Kansas.
I am so, so, so happy. So relieved that all of this is over and I never have to apply to MFA programs ever again (I hope). So excited to spend some time in that gorgeous library at Iowa State.
If I learned anything from this process, it is that the game is really not over until you have the rejection letter in hand. Anything can happen right up to April 15. Don't give up hope!
