FSU MFA Applicants 2021

Hi all, just got a call that I have been accepted for Film Production off of the waitlist. I have until April 19th to decide - I have no idea what my answer will be because I just accepted at another school literally today as well. Just wanted to fill ya'll in in case anyone is also holding out for waitlist acceptance! I imagine more spots will open up after the decision deadline as well
Congrats, I haven’t heard anything from any of my waitlisted schools.
