Acceptances

keep all hope open. even if they are done calling people, there are 36 people accepted and there is more than likely a list of wait listers and not everyone who is offered admission is going to accept it.

keep your hopes up everyone, i wish you the best.
 
congrats FLFan. no call for me either, im equally heartbroke. did i remember right, were you hoping on good news from florida? do you think you'll take up tisch's offer?
 
Status update:

Rejected: Ohio University; University of Texas
Likely Rejected (not interviewed): UCLA, Columbia
Interviewed (decision pending): FSU
Decision Pending: USC
Accepted: Boston U, American U, Chapman
 
Just got accepted to Columbia!
and with a fellowship at that! My interview went well but I never thought I would get this kind of love! I am sincerely flipping out.

Now the complicated question though ... they require a deciscion by April 9th. WTF am i supposed to do? I have an interview this saturday with UCLA! Does anyone have any clue when UCLA plans to get back to people by?!?!
 
You got your letter already????? Awwww, man I'm stressed now! Of course, you are closer to the campus than I am... Plus, maybe getting a fellowship helped speed up the process.... Argh! I want my letter too!
 
Robertfish, the fellowship? Just tuition or with a stipend? I'm just gathering information for when I apply next year. I didn't even think about Columbia because FSConfidenctial said that they are not real generous with the aid.
 
I just posted in the AFI - ADVICE thread, but I got a letter of acceptance from AFI this past Saturday, for the Cinematography discipline. I look forward to working with the other Fellows-to-be from this forum. Hopefully we'll keep up our support structure, and even turn it into a real friendship together. =]

^--cheesy? oh wells.... ;)

Robertish,

Congrats! So what does a "fellowship" with Columbia entail exactly?
 
Just got in and was offered the fellowship. It's a half scholarship for the first two years. So happy! Good luck with your decisions. :)

Congrats on those accepted!

Robertish, I was told that UCLA doesn't notify people until after all the interviews are finished...around April 21st.

Wow, a half scholarship? That's pretty good, do they offer any stipends for living expenses or just tuition?
 
thanks all.
my interview was on the 15th and I left it feeling really good.
I dont believe I got a half tuition. I need to look into what a full one is though
it was a phone call.
good luck to all!
I am sick and exhausted (and can finally go to bed as a potential film student) :)

Congrats man. Take the money and run without looking back!
 
That's a bit shady of Columbia to require a decision so soon. They know better.

Anyway, UCLA peeps won't get back to people until the end of April.

You could tell them your predicament during the interview, and see when the earliest they could get back to you by.
