Applying to MFAs is EXPENSIVE! Being exhausted is ALSO expensive. Send some $$ support in the next 24 hrs to offset application costs for Black + Indigenous writers. Redistributing wealth is good for u. Deets in the image and description.

Do you have $$$ academic funding already? let's drain those ivory towers for all they've got!

send in some cash. u may have zero control over the actual efficacy of any ~diversity~ initiatives at ur institution. but u CAN rn send us $35 aka like 2x takeout!

[MFA App Review @MfaApp]

we have been supporting underrepresented writers as they apply to MFA programs for *five years* (whoa).

the thing is, we cannot take on cis yt volunteers to read writing samples, etc. due to many reasons.

if u are a cis yt writer who has asked us/ wants to know how to help...

[MFA App Review @MfaApp]

i rlly like a trend we heard about, it's called send us $$ to support Black and Indigenous MFA applicants, + then venmo request that ammt from your older sibling who works in tech.
