I applied to undergraduate CAS but not a specific program, and I'm not sure if I should put it there. I also declined their interview request at the time due to commitment to another...

    What's the NYU - Tisch Kanbar/Stern MBA/MFA Dual Degree Deadline?

    I'm trying to find it to update the school info but I'm finding nothing on their webpages. I must be blind. The other NYU degree deadlines didn't seem to change from last year... just verifying this one too.

    NYU Tisch dialogue — scene description or nah?

    Hi everyone! I'm just wondering if we can include some scene descriptions in the middle for the dialogue prompt of NYU. Or do they only allow a line of description on the top and the rest should be all dialogue? My friend and I are having a debate over it. Thank you so much for helping...

    Does the dramatic story for NYU's Grad film program have to be at MAX 2 pages?

    Working on the dramatic story I tried cutting down as much as I could and right now it's at about 2 and 1/2 pages. The instructions said to write a 2-page story but I'm not sure if they meant that it has to be strictly under 2 pages or slightly over 2 pages.
