Yeah, I would find it unlikely anyway that they’d notify all finalists within a day—if that was really the case, then I’d expect all notifications to be sent much sooner than Dec!
thank you!!!
Oh just got a response when I asked them to clarify. They said “Finalists specifically [are still being notified till next week], the official announcement for all winners will go out December 9” so don’t stress y’all we still got hope!
Yw!
Thank you so much for putting this on here! Good luck to you!
What email did you reach out to them with?
Ofc you too!
I dmed them on Instagram
do you guys think all writers have been notified?
i applied for short story and am very nervous
How do you access the submission page? Thank you!
honestly? i kind of do think writers have all been called, considering I haven’t heard anything yesterday or today. i’m short story too, so fingers crossed they just took a break or something! this year’s calls have been a little weird.
wait i just scrolled up and saw what everyone’s been talking about. if finalist calls still have a few days to go then i’m probably wrong!
Go to the “apply” section of the youngarts site, then scroll down to the steps 1, 2, 3 part. Under step 2 “start your application” there should be a hyperlink to “your account”.
Has anyone been notified today? I have a feeling that they have already contacted every finalist already but don’t know for sure even though they say that it ends next week.
I also think that they have already contacted all the finalists. Had anyone heard from any film finalists?
Tbh I don’t think they’ve contacted all finalists yet. Film, jazz, and photography have been veryyyyyyy quiet, I don’t think anyone has heard back from those disciplines. Plus, with there being 144 finalists last year, I doubt that the very little amount of people on twitter announcing their wins is the full list
@jazzapps thank you! We were told official emails will be sent tomorrow (Nov 19).
official emails? as in, for everyone who won, or just for those who’ve already been notified…?
congrats btw!!!
I would be super surprised if they were done notifying winners. This time in previous years there was a ton more. I use writers as my benchmark because they’re really active on here and on twitter, and there’s been what? About five finalists in five subcategories? If I had to guess there were more notifs today and yesterday, just in categories where people don’t announce online. But really who’s to say youngarts season is always super weird.
