Please take note of the following portion of our Stegner Fellowship FAQ. We appreciate your patience as we read through your manuscripts with care.
When are applicants notified of the committee's decision?
All applicants will be notified of their status in April. Please do not contact us before then asking about your application, unless you want to notify us of a change in your contact information.
Can you tell me if I was shortlisted?
No, please do not ask us. Our notifications are strictly boolean. We never release feedback or compare one application to another in any way. Please understand that this is the only way we can keep our application fee reasonable considering the tremendous volume of applications we receive.
Can you tell me if my application is out of contention?
No, please do not ask us before April. Providing this information would be at odds with our policy of not comparing one application to another in any way.
When do you contact recommenders?
We do not necessarily contact recommenders of successful applicants at all, and if we do we may do so at any time; please do not try and use your recommenders to gauge the status of your application.
