Does anyone have Jack e-mail? I want to send him a message.
 
I'm most likely going to request to be taken off the waitlist. There's no way I can afford to pay the holding fee or the move to NYC. Let alone any other expenses while I'm waiting for student loans to disburse. FML

I'm sorry to hear that :(
didn't realize they required a holding fee for waitlisted students as well...that's a tough spot

I don't think there is a holding fee... I think he means if he gets accepted the $800 to hold his spot. Otherwise I wasn't told about the holding fee.
 
So.. if my math is correct LOL... I could potentially get 27,900 over the course of the first year unless I did it wrong lol

You're gonna get a lot more than that. Tuition is around $31k per semester. Plus you have to factor in the cost of living as well. Cost of Attendance (Tuition, rent, books, food, travel, etc) for the year is around $90k.

I think $90k is about right.

What are the odds of someone getting off the wait list? Anybody in your class from the wait list? Do you know how many are on the list?

If operator drops out then that's one less person for me to worry about lol

Tony, I think I sent you a message on facebook. Hope it's you haha.

I'll DM @BGF for her name.
 
I might be missing the literature on this, but does anyone know when classes start (early September vs. mid-September)? And is there an orientation beforehand?

Working freelance production now so trying to squeeze in oneeee last gig :rolleyes:
