Hey I got the email at 2:15PM today. Then it asked me to choose from a total of 16-interview slots split between March 2nd and March 3rd. I'm betting they'll send another batch of 16 next Monday. Best of luck!!!!!!!

Hello everybody.... So I had an interview with Jack and Maureen for the creative producing program last Monday. Does anybody know how many people they interview and has everyone been emailing the grad students they referred us to? They have been very helpful!

Congratulations to everyone who had interview requests. I believe they get sent out in waves. I think I got mine after a bunch of people, so hang tight!

This is from the website:
"In 2012, we received approximately 602 applications for the Film MFA Program, and an average incoming class is around 48 students in the Screenwriting/Directing program and 24 students in the Creative Producing program."

That's about a 12% acceptance rate. Also I would guess total applications have gone up since 2012.

If 48 attend, how many are accepted?
