2007 Accepted? Rejected?

[MattyMac23]

Weird timing, Sa. They must have given me your spot at USC because I just got the call for getting off the fall waitlist today. Very exciting for me, but also congrats to you for making a definitive decision. NY here you come!

Hey guys I am new to this whole thing. To give you a little background on myself I am 22 and been accepted at AFI and waitlisted at NYU and USC. Just wondering if you actually received a phone call from USC about being pulled of the waitlist or actually a piece of mail. I have spoken to the USC admission offices as well as Michelle Taylor Dean of admissions. I am going nuts waiting. I have been in limbo for awhile now and I wish I could just get an answer. Any help or advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

Sam...

I got a huge envelope from USC on Thursday. A little one on Monday.

And the phone call on Tuesday.

It made no sense whatsoever, but I'm going to USC, and that's all that really matters to me.

We've waited sooooooooooo long....


(sorry, my last sentence reminded me of a Counting Crows song, and that was me singing badly.)

Sam-

Which program at USC did you apply for? I know Jayimess was waitlisted for screenwriting and I was waitlisted for production. After returning the letter saying I was waitlisted for the fall (which I got on the 20th of April), I hadn't heard a single thing. Then I got a call from Michelle Taylor just yesterday saying a spot had opened and paperwork would be in the mail. So, don't give up hope just yet!

The waiting of this whole process is the worst part. It'd be one thing to hear back and have it be a rejection. That you could deal with and, in time, come to terms with. But not knowing? Nothing worse. Just keep near your phone and mailbox. I'll cross my fingers for you.

Matty!

Congrats to another fellow Trojan...well, you were a Trojan already...just a little earlier now.

 

[Samuel Harowitz]

Thanks Matty. I will let you know what happens.

 

[Samuel Harowitz]

By the way it was production I was waitlisted for.

 

[Winterreverie]

I think it may be time to update the where everyone is going list...

great idea....better start a new post.....

 

[Jayimess]

So I got offered admission to AFI today.

I told them I'm going to USC, but even so late in the game, it feels damn good to know I'm three for three!

 

[b4bad]

you rock dudette.....

Awesome Jayimess! That's really exciting. I'm glad getting accepted didn't sway you back into the land of indecision.

 

[MattyMac23]

Congrats Jayimess. You're a hot commodity these days. Too bad all the other schools are missing out

 

[Jayimess]

Can I just say I'm thankful for all the positivity on this site?

Thanks you guys...

Congrats Jayimess. I'm surprised with your credentials AFI took so long to decide.

I'm invited to the August 20th for the Graduate School, and required to go to the August 24th for SCA....how was it?


b4bad...you got your fall admit at last?? Congrats!!


Kurt...All the new admissions director told me was that errors were made, but I am assuming that I was supposed to be waitlisted instead of rejected...and my cred ain't that sweet.

 

[b4bad]

@Jayimess.......i got admit along with Sa......i got my visa and air tickets too .........


hope to see all fellow trojans on 20th.......i just cannot contain my excitement........

We should all plan to meet together on the 20th. We can each wear a red shirt or something or maybe just describe to each other what to look for. Someone can have a teddy bear and a rose, another person can have a bowler hat, etc.
