Really? I got scholarship information but that's not the same thing. He told you you were eligible for financial aid?

Oh, I think it was scholarship too... Not sure... Might be wrong... ¯\(ツ)/¯

Did you have to ask about the scholarship or did he bring it up himself?

He told me without me asking about it... But I remember him saying financial aid, so now I'm confused haha he said like we want to give xx$ each year... Don't know if that's a scholarship or fin aid. Or what the actual difference between them are...

financial aid you have to apply for with your application, do you remember applying for something? if not, it's likely a scholarship and they really want you!

Yes i think that might be a scholarship but if they said financial aid im not so sure... They told me they had 2 good news when i picked up the phone. They would definitely tell you without you asking i think

Is there a standard time frame in terms of how long after CP notifications come the Dir/ Screenwriting ones?

If we don’t get accepted, do we have to wait until everyone, including screenwriting/directing, is notified of their acceptance?

I have an out of state interview I only want to attend if I know for a fact that I haven’t been accepted.

Congrats to those with a slot!

I guess there won't be more calls today. Do you think that this year they will extend from their 3 day method?

From what I can gather, it seems that creative producing applicants who were accepted were notified of their decision status around the same time, if not a hair earlier, than those who were rejected. Screenwriting/Directing applicants were notified a few weeks after producers, so according to this site from last year it seems all producers find their status out before any Screenwriting/directing applicants do. Hope this helps

So... I just got the call. Lance Weiler called me and told me he had a couple of good news. I got accepted and I was given a scholarship.

I can't believe it!

I guess (hope) the screenwriting/directing decision will come later than the CP program, since my interview was scheduled next week.

Congradulations to all of you who get admitted!
