crossing my fingers and toes so hard that they're spreading them out across the day...or even two days...:'( but ngl, feeling despondent already :'( but so happy for anyone who got an interview, bestest of luck to everyone :')

I’m a little upset I didn’t make it to the semifinals this time around. I’m hoping I can find a job in the industry and will reapply next year.

Good luck to everyone! I hope you all who are getting interviewed get in!

I got the e-mail after I got the interview request on the Application Status page. Maybe they will send out the interview requests over a span of a couple of days, keep waiting! Good luck

Do you think notifications are going to be sent out throughout the day?

IDK. Do you think they sent them all today or are still continuing in the next couple of days?

Do you think notifications are going to be sent out throughout the day?

I think that would make sense. My friend told me they received their interview request one day after everyone posted about it in the threads (last year). So, there is still time, and every year is different. If it doesn't work out there are other schools too!

I'm hoping I get one too. Is it likely they will send more out throughout the day or the next couple of days? How does it usually go?

 

[JHD]

I really struck out this year. Haven't received an interview from AFI, USC (Stark), or Columbia.

Congratulations to everyone that has! That's truly amazing news!

Anyone who was waitlisted last year not receive a request this year?

How about those who received interviews thus far? First time applicants? Former rejections? Waitlisted last year?

Just trying to get a gauge.

Mee!
Waitlisted last year and no request (yet).
Trying to keep positive at least until the end of the week.

Usually, they send all the interview requests out in a day. So if I don’t get it by tonight, I am going to be losing hope. Although I’d be kidding myself if I say I would stop waiting.

I was also waitlisted last year, but no request yet.

even I was waitlisted last year, but no request. May be they just like to keep us waiting XD

I looked at the threads from last year and before. They send the mass out in one day and a couple two days after. So if you didn’t hear back Friday, I’d say its a wrap.

Me!
Got waitlisted last year, didn’t receive interview request today

 

[mcama]

I was waitlisted also, so that makes at least 4 of us. Interesting lol.

 

[Zuri Zhou]

In fact, I feel like my portfolio and recommendation letters are so much stronger than last year. It was frustrating for a while that I didn't get an email today, but I just re-read all my materials and I'm still confident in them!
I will continue to wait patiently. Good luck to everyone!
