Northwestern 2023- Documentary Media

I just got rejected😭but I didn’t even get an interview invite, so this is expected
I started a rejection 2023 thread here:


If you want to commiserate and talk about next plans with your fellow rejectees. Don't worry. A lot of people get rejections before they finally get accepted.
 
guys, congratulations on your success. Can I ask you guys about your background? I got rejected after my interview and I think everything is fine, but I'm guessing it could be because it has something to do with the fact that I'm still an undergrad and I don't have a resume from any major film festivals, I'm not sure if that's the case, but if you guys would like to be able to share that would be really great!

Hi, my background is similar to yours and I'm an international undergrad now. I also got rejected after interview.
