So it's safe to assume all accepted CP's have heard by now, right?

Nah I wouldn't assume that. I think calls started going out this weekend.

Today is the last interview day for screenwriting/directing applicants... sigh.
Now we have another 2 weeks or so to go before we hear back.

Side note: I wonder why there are so few screenwriting/directing students on this forum.

Also what are your thoughts on sending follow up thank you notes?

I sent thank you emails to the grad students who I was told to email.

Hi! Been awhile since I've posted on here. I'm a first year in the CP track. Congrats to admitted CP applicants. If you have any questions about the program, feel free to reach out to me with any questions.

Hi guys, been following this thread for a while and figured I would chime in to let @EclecticMel21 I'm on the screenwriting/directing track.
I had my interview on March 5th via Skype (international student from London). They were very friendly, it was the professor of directing and the professor of tv writing - both stellar guys.
Congrats to the CP students who have heard on their acceptance. I wonder when directing/ screenwriting applicants will hear back.

From what I understand, we should be hearing back in 5-10 days.

Just had my interview on Monday, and it was a dream. So relaxed and focused. I was really thankful for the graduate student who was there to chat while I waited for them to finish up the other interview! That was my last interview, now the waiting begins...

 

[mm70]

Do you think there are any more interviews left?
