Columbia 2013 Applicants

[shagerman]

Just received an email an hour ago for an interview. I had considered it a done deal that I was rejected--I think emails are still going out tonight. By the way, I might have just experienced a small heart attack

I'm guessing there is no bifurcation in the selection of Directing and Screenwriting applicants, as they are part of one MFA film class initially. But just to know, have any of the candidates who opted for screenwriting heard anything back?

i was "screenwriting" applicant, and heard yesterday. but they told me they still had a lot of calls to make! so hang in there.

@brehco, They said they still had to contact people?

Received an e-mail about 2 hours ago for an interview, from a student as well.

I got the interview mail last night, too. Yay =)

I received an e-mail offering an interview for Screenwriting. I am quite obviously thrilled, and now with an admission offer from Chapman, I am wondering if anyone has personal insight or comparison between the two?

Still nothing. Hope is totally gone.

@O2LSports Congrats to you! When did you get the e-mail? Just want to see if there's still any hope

Same here. Mourned. In fact pretty much moved on too. No hope whatsoever.

I'm hoping this means that those if us who haven't heard anything yet are on the interview contact list!

I received the e-mail about 6 hours ago. For everyone saying 'hope over', I'd have to disagree.

 

[s.aldani]

Received the email from a student too! Yay!

 

[matildabrown]

congrats s.aldani! when you'd receive it?

 

[s.aldani]

I got it around 8pm UK time on the 20th! Have you got one? x

Nothing here, assume that no hope for Columbia anymore

 

[Virat]

I guess if there's any wait now, it's till Monday. It seems they might be done with the notifications but let's hope for the best.

 

[nellie]

just got an interview request today, don't give up hope everyone! seems like there's still a number of slots left!

Got an interview call for mid-Mar.

Will try to figure out the status on interview calls, and update you guys soon.

Hi guys, I've been following this forum for a while. I think it's about time I contribute. I have an interview tomorrow for creative producing. I put my first two choices as March 4th so I wouldn't have to wait too long after the interview for their decision but oh well just have to go tomorrow and wait. Does anyone know when they typically send decisions?

Why are they scheduling interviews for so far out? Makes it seem as though they have more to schedule, but if that's the case, why not call already
