My kid applied for creative nonfiction. Do you know when they will get notifications?
The announcements are formally made for everyone at the end of November per YoungArts. The winners will be notified by email around the same time I think. Award winners with distinction will also receive a follow-up phone call. In the past, it looks like those phone calls were going out within a week before the official list publication online.
Per YoungArts, this year:
November 18 - phone call notifications begin for Winners with Distinction
November 24 - all other winners are notified by email and the list of all winners gets published online.
We are just weeks away. Who is excited? Or terrified? Or a bit of both?
