NYU Dramatic Writing 2020

[Memz]

These might be helpful stats my interviewer told me yesterday:

We had 300 apply - went down to 100 - then 24/25 got it

Pretty interesting! So you spoke to your interviewer yesterday? Did they call you?

No I emailed.

I got a congrats call from Terry the other day and he said over 450 applications were submitted. To just get an interview means your portfolio was greenlighted by two readers and a professor. So anyone who got an interview should be super proud of themselves- it’s competitive.

Hey Joan, congrats on your acceptance! I see that you’ve been admitted to multiple places and was wondering which program you’re leaning towards? I wanted to get a better understanding of the difference between the programs and the merits of each

Hi all! Longtime lurker here, just wanted to say that I'm part of the waitlist crew! Congrats to everyone who's heard good news so far this cycle!

 

[fugghetabahdit]

Anyone off the waitlist yet?

 

[JoanCrawford]

Just submitted my deposit! Anyone else do so, too?

I don't think we'll hear until after the admitted students deadline, which is this Friday.

Just submitted my deposit! Anyone else do so, too?

Also congrats!

Just put my deposit down! Can't wait Hopefully a bright light at the end of the corona tunnel.

So, I officially declined - it was a super tough decision, but between the cross country move in the middle of a pandemic, all the Covid-19 uncertainties/risks (plus, the lack of info from NYU regarding potential delays/issues), and the lack of financial aid, it was one thing too many. I was/am really bummed - both to decline and that I won't get to meet some of y'all - but hopefully my spot opens up an opportunity for someone on the waitlist. Sending all of y'all who are attending a huge high five!

 

[komalestas]

Omg I was on the waitlist and I got in! I didn't get an email or anything but when I logged into my portal there was an update!

 

[JoanCrawford]

Anyone else get off the waitlist and/or commit?

Also, is there a Facebook group where we could all meet, update each other, etc.?

Hey! I'm committed to the program. I don't know about any existing Facebook groups but would be a part of one!

Me as well! It would be helpful especially right now with everything going on/ stuff with housing.

 

[tvwriter11]

Hey- I just created a Facebook group for us. If you want to DM me with your names / facebook profile link I can invite you, and then we can spread it around to other students. I live in New York and am happy to answer any housing questions you might have as best I can (at least in terms of neighborhoods, typical rent prices, etc).

 

[Aeli23]

Hey! I'm also committed to NYU and would love to connect! DMing you now!

 

[tvwriter11]

Hey all- I made a private group at first but it was giving me trouble inviting you all to the page. I've deleted it and made a new public one, that we can set to private once everyone is in.

Please let me know if you're able to join from this link below. If not, please send me a friend request (Jason Lipschutz, you'll see me in the group's Members list) and then I'll send you an invite to the Group.
