NYU Graduate Film 2022

Good luck with your Columbia application! Could you tell us what questions they asked you during the interview?

Thanks Very casual conversation, the asked about what kind of movies I like, why Columbia, what am I doing right now and later it kind of turned into discussion about the school. Hope it helps!

Hi Everyone! How accurate are the analytics on Vimeo? I looked at my watch history and my application film hasn't been viewed at all; I have one view from early January. I'm concerned that maybe my film wasn't reviewed.

I highly suggest checking the impressions rather than the views, i only had one view recorded on my vimeo analytics January-February. But had multiple impressions throughout the same time period

Thanks for the tip! My film had 5 impressions between Jan 21-27 so hopefully it was viewed in its entirety. Congrats to all those that received an interview!

Did you just provide a link or actually put in it the portfolio if that makes sense?

Welp, still no news as of today. I think that’s a wrap for me.

谢谢 非常随意的谈话，被问到我喜欢什么样的电影，为什么选择哥伦比亚，我现在在做什么，后来变成了关于学校的讨论。希望能帮助到你！

感谢您分享的内容！想问一下他们是否曾经问过您喜欢您的导演的风格或者关于您现在提交的有什么灵感？
...当你和他们谈论学校时，他们会关注什么话题？太感谢了！

Hi, everyone!
I've been watching this thread for quite some time. I have no experience in the film industry and the realization of wanting to shift and pursue a career in it came late, a week before the submission deadline date lol so I decided to apply this year

Congratulations to all the shortlisted! For those who silently watch this thread (like me) or plan to reapply next year, please bump me if there's a new thread for the 2023 admission. Hopefully we will meet soon at Tisch and get to collaborate on projects as seniors or classmates!

I haven’t heard from NYU either (but I did hear from CalArts today!) Hoping more interview requests come

 

[Bel225]

Haven’t heard anything here - really hoping there are some late requests going out but heard from Columbia so very happy about that good luck

Has Tisch ever admitted students without interview?

Has Tisch ever admitted students without interview?

I feel like there are very few students who are not requested to interview.

Are you applying for the MFA program in Directing? If it is, I also applied for this program but got interview request more than a week ago…And I am still waiting for the response from NYU…

I applied to the MFA in Film/Video, not Directing. I think most CalArts requests have gone out but I submitted my application 3 days ago since they were still open for that program. I think that’s why mine came in later

Not according to the stats in our database unfortunately.

 

[JoeIrv22]

Do you think they are done sending out interviews?

 

[weeblewobble18]

I do not.
From Courtney:
Interview requests have started to go out but they can continue to go out on a rolling basis through the second week of March. Please note that all interviews, if requested, are taking place on Zoom.
A couple years ago, a couple accepted applicants got their interview eight days after the first batch was released.
Hang in there and try not to think about it too much! A watched pot never boils (or at the very least, it's agony waiting for it).
