Rescheduled a zoom meeting with Eric and confirmed my offer and scholarship, but haven't received any official acceptance letter yet, are they only giving oral confirmation? weird..

Question: My portal doesn’t say anything about being denied or waitlisted. Where are y’all finding that, please?

This was for writing for film and tv. It don’t think notification last for the directing program have gone out.

Sent them an email because I've also been waiting for my portal to update. Their response -

"We will be sending all applicants their official admissions decision for the Film MFA within the next week or so."

Does that mean for next week it's either waitlist or rejection, because I know usually they send out all the acceptances via email/phone call a week ahead of the official decision.

I got an email request to talk to Eric through Zoom and then received an official acceptance notification from the portal about a day or two later.

Also, I think it's likely that I won't be attending Columbia, so there may be at least one spot that opens up!

I still don't see anything on my portal.

Does anyone know what percentage of applicants on the waitlist are ultimately admitted?
