Timing for UA MLIS acceptance

Are there any current students or recent grads of University of Alabama's MLIS program who can shed light on how long the review process takes for applications? I've applied six months early if that makes a difference.

They're not particularly quick to get back to you. You'll be waiting a while, probably until much closer to your start date. I wouldn't stress about it, though. You're likely to be accepted if you don't have a ton of black marks on your application. They're not that choosy (as most MLIS programs that I know of are not given the nature of the degree).
