Columbia Film MFA, Fall 2020 Application

I just saw that you were accepted by Columbia University’s directing and screenwriting program. Did you just receive a phone call from the admission office ? Thank you !
Someone got called from Directing? I missed that. Who was it? When did they get the call????
 
Hello, everyone! Have you guys heard something from the admission office ? I mean for the directing and writing program. Thank you so much! I saw a student just accepted by the Columbia University in directing and writing program . Really nervous now.
where did you see this?
 
It appears Ian_Qin updated their application to accepted. I think we’re all anxiously waiting to hear when and how they heard.

Yes. That's why I guess the directing and screenwriting program have already begun the admissions process. But I heard nothing until now. Good luck for you! 😊
 
Just got the call from Eric! I am in with a scholarship!!!!!
Woohoo! Congrats! That's awesome. Was it a decent sized scholarship?

FYI I gave you the Columbia badge and you should now have access to the Columbia private forum. If anyone else wants access see this thread:

 
Accepted CP friends!
Have you all received the email regarding the Zoom gathering? Is any of you joining? I'm wondering if we should put together a list of questions regarding the program and what'll happen next. Also if any of you aren't able to join, I'd be happy to ask any questions that you want to ask for you and try to take some notes.

PS as an international student, I have a feeling that I may have to go for deferral. Student visa applications are closed and don't even get me started on international travel/ border control. But hopefully one day we'll get to meet up all in good wealth and make wonderful (or corny) films together!

I'll be on the Zoom call for CP and would love to meet you all virtually! Also an international student here, so I feel you. Fingers crossed for us <3

Also, congratulations to everyone being accepted this week and best of luck to those who are waiting!!
