Well I'm assuming not all 48 who are accepted attend. Some may go elsewhere no?

ohhhhhh you're right

Def. And I actually found that the top film schools get quite alot of spill over. So they often are accepting many of the same students.
I know many people get in from the waitlist and since the producing track is fairly new, they have a higher acceptance rate, because they get less applicants.

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!

Thank you so much! It gives me a little hope. I hope I can get mine in the next following days.

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!!!!!!!

what program producing or screenwriting

Hi everyone - Long time, first time. Just wanted to give you a heads up: I never received an e-mail invitation to interview (for directing/screenwriting) but when I logged into the application to check its status, sure enough, there was an invitation to select an interview slot. So check! Good luck to everyone.

CONGRATS TO EVERYONE! I will keep hope alive and hope that they have another batch going out sometime this week.

Thank you.

Hey Guys, hope all is well. For those who have been invited for the interview. Big Congratulations and good luck! We will need it.

And perhaps, here, it would be very good for all of us to hear from those here who had their interviews in the past with Columbia, what would be your voice of reason and advice for the interview? Thank you, greatly appreciated!

Where exactly did you see if you don't mind my asking? I don't think I got one but I just wanna be sure it's not like glaringly in my face and I'm blind.

I had my interview for producing the first week of Feb!

The producing track is new? What do you mean

Which current graduates did they give you? I spoke to some of them during my interview but was never given an email to reach out to them.
