Here's last year's thread too;

Northwestern Writing for Screen and Stage 2023

Anyone else applied to this program? I grew up five minutes from the school, and I love it. It's one of the only fully scholarshipped screenwriting programs out there though...so I'm not getting my hopes up lol!

Thanks for starting this! Are you basing interview notification dates on last year?

Oh yes. So it's just my speculation that we would hear back next month

Has anyone heard anything yet or are we all thinking interview requests will go out at the end of next week?

 

[TomCatIggy]

Nothing so far.

I haven’t heard anything. Still crossing my fingers!

Anyone hear back about an interview?

 

[TomCatIggy]

Crickets. Based on previous years, I am assuming they will reach out this week. But assuming is stupid.

I don’t know any. Did you get an interview notification?

 

[emily1725]

Do all interview requests go out at the same time/same day?

 

[arabella]

yes =)

Sorry, I don't understand. Did you get an interview for Fall 2024 at Northwestern Writing for the Screen and Stage? If so, when is your interview, and when did you hear? Thank you!

I did. The interview is scheduled for either the end of this week or next. They asked me to submit a full script by the very next day. I received notification of the interview on the 20th.

Awesome! Thanks so much for the info. There’s barely any out there, and I wish we could go see some of the plays the students produce.
