Help? If possible.
This year I am reapplying to grad school. I'm applying to all the schools to be admitted into two different programs: the Creative Writing MFA and the English MA. I feel like if I don't get into the former I probably have more of a chance with the latter. So far, the schools I'm applying to are:
Washington University in St Louis, University of Florida, University of Texas, New York University, University of Houston, Saint Mary's College of California.
I'm also looking into University of Michigan, Otis College of Art and Design, School of the Art Institute of Chicago, University of Notre Dame, University of New Orleans, Emerson College, University of Massachusetts at Amherst, University of New Hampshire, Rutgers University, City College of New York, The New School, Sarah Lawrence College, Syracuse University, Ohio State University, Chatham University, University of Pittsburgh, University of South Carolina, Vanderbuilt University, Goddard College, George Mason University, Hollins University, University of Virginia, Virginia Tech, anywhere that does MFAs in Creative Writing in Alaska, University of New Brunswick, University of British Columbia anywhere that does MFAs in Creative Writing in Canada, University of East Anglia in the UK, anywhere that does MFAs in Creative Writing in any English speaking country such as the UK, Australia, or New Zealand, and English MA programs anywhere in Europe, particularly the Netherlands, Switzerland, and Poland, and English MA programs anywhere in the world, including Argentina, South Africa, India, China, Russia, and Egypt.
Um, so. The purpose of this post is to ask if anyone has any advice on any of these universities, any of these locations, any English MA programs, any Creative Writing MFA programs, any grad programs, getting into grad programs, writing portfolios, and stuff. I'm just trying to gather any info I can on the process of choosing and applying, as I have failed so spectacularly in the past.
So how 'bout that Buffy 6 comic?

That said, I do know about Washington University in St. Louis in a general sense (not English-program specific). I can tell you that it is a phenomenal school and I would have gone there in a heartbeat if I could have afforded it (or for grad school, gotten in-- I didn't apply there because my research interests didn't match, but I'm not sure I would have been accepted). I don't know of a single Wash U grad who isn't gainfully employed in a very good job-- the alumni base is fantastic. The campus is pretty, which I think you can expect with most of those schools. And finally, it is located right by Forest Park which is the prettiest place in St. Louis and the third largest city park in the country.
