I received this today from YoungArts IG account:

ā€œHi there! Finalist notifications began yesterday and this process will take some time to complete. All winners will then be announced December 6. The timeline is published at Apply to the National Arts Competition | YoungArts Thanks for reaching out!ā€œ

It was a reply to my IG message from yesterday afternoon.

Approx. 20 people are chosen for writing each year so donā€™t lose hope just yet!! Also, do you know what categories? I know some people in novel and poetry but havenā€™t heard anything about others

Seems the winners in writing usually are from NY, SC, CA, TX. Few are from Midwest or any other statesā€¦lolā€¦

I havenā€™t seen anyone mention being a finalist in short story yet? Iā€™ve seen poetry, novel (I think?), and CN. Has anyone seen short story? Iā€™m in the midwest btw.

has anyone heard about more finalists from classical music? I saw the one flute player on insta and someone referenced a pianist I think on this forum, but I havenā€™t heard about any others in that category.

I know one is poetry but Iā€™m unsure about the others! One of them won with a prose/script mix so Iā€™m not sure what category that falls under.

The music colleges write to all the relevant applicants, not just the winners.
