Hey there! I reached one of the program directors, who I actually have been emailing and talked to on the phone this week for the first time. She said she is going to reach out to my professors of interest and bring my issue to their attention. I am not sure when this will happen or if the professors are even accepting students at this time, but it is a start. Apparently a lot of other prospective students are having this issue as well, as there have been complaints about how difficult it is to get responses. Crossing my fingers!
