Haven't heard anything yet! Does anyone know if the interviews for this program typically coincide with the other programs?

Just checked last year's thread.
On the Film MFA, people got their interview on Feb 5th.
Dramatic writing on the 22nd.

Ah, so there's a chance we have a minute until we start hearing

The calm before the storm obsessively pressing F5 on my email

Every one of these NYU Bookstore emails that isn't an interview notification :shakes fist at the sky:

Last year, interview requests happened in batches, starting on Feb 22-until about the first week of March, depending on who you were interviewing with. Unlike other schools, they don't all go out at once, which is anxiety inducing! Hope this helps! Fingers crossed for everybody.

So maybe we’ll start hearing about interviews next week?

@ChiaFettuccine did you portal change at all when/before you got the interview request?

Nope. Got an email directly from one of the professors.

I also got my invitation for the interview today directly from one of the professors as well.
Suuuper excited!!

 

[lschiozer]

I just saw my portal and nothing has changed there so I guess they only send the e-mail

Got my interview request this afternoon by email, I am honestly in disbelief. Overjoyed to say the least.

I had to read my email three times because I couldn't believe it as well!!

 

[SHENGTONG]

HOLY CRAP. I got it too. Am I dreaming?

Congratulations! And to everyone still waiting don't lose hope. I doubt all the interview requests went out in one day

 

[Galadriel]

Also got my interview request

They come out in batches depending on who you are interviewing with, so I'm guessing there are more coming. I'm interviewing with Ian Ellis James aka William Electric Black, playwright & TV writer. Excited

I interviewed and was waitlisted last year. NYU's interview process seems to be just as much about you interviewing them as it about them interviewing you, so don't be afraid to ask questions! I don't think the interview is heavily weighted toward your admission, it is mostly about the writing, but still a good chance to connect. Congrats all!

Interview is on Monday excited and also nervous! Struggling to think up some questions but that's what I shall spend the rest of the weekend doing
