    Just got an email acknowledging my acceptance. Still not sure exactly when we'll register for classes, aid, etc.

    I haven't heard anything either. I imagine it's just end of the year delay or they're waiting until ten days have passed.

    I'll be finishing the MA in about week, so that's exciting, but I kind of wished that I had figured out that I really wanted to do film beforehand. Before, you know, I invested the money in it. It's all right, though. Maybe it'll help me get some work when I move out to CA.

    Congrats, mmall. I'll be traveling from Richmond, VA come this fall. I'm finishing up my MA in English here at VCU right now, and while I've always wanted to get into film, I finally worked up the courage to chase after it following a screenwriting seminar last fall. I submitted the first...

    Congrats, Porty. I just accepted CSUN's offer yesterday, so unless Pepperdine can make a strong pitch (if I'm even accepted) I'll be attending CSUN in the fall. Wow, New Zealand? I thought I was making a big trip from Virginia. Anyway, I think it'll be a great place to be.

    I guess, if I get in at Pepperdine, I could go ahead and pay the registration fee at csun and eat it if I decided on Pepperdine instead. Definitely moving either way. It all depends on if I get scholarship money or at an assistantship at one or the other. I'm excited, but definitely anxious...

    Got my acceptance in the mail for CSUN today, so that immediately rules out CSUF. I hope Pepperdine makes up their minds soon because CSUN only is only giving me ten days to make a decision. So I've got some thinking to do...

    Cahoots, Yeah my hope is on the other schools I applied to. My main mission is getting out West, though. Are you graduating from CSUF, or are you transferring?

    This is my first post, but I've been lurking around for a couple months now since I sent my first application back in February. I applied to both CSUF and CSUN. (Along with Pepperdine. Would've liked to have applied to UCLA, but I was a bit late getting started.) Wow, CSUF sounding worse by...
