NYU Grad Film school Fall 2021

Notified on 2/5 and interviewed 2/18.
Good luck! Add your applications to the database when you can. :)

 
From the dramatic writing thread: NYU Dramatic Writing MFA - Fall 2021
"I emailed a department administrator to see if all of the interview requests had gone out yet and she said no. She also said the timeline was a bit different this year because of COVID. Don't mean to give false hope, but it ain't over til it's over"

I wonder if it's the same for directing
if i wanted to say, email a department administrator myself and ask about the directing program, what email would i send it to? is it like the one that's admissions@blah blah or a specific person?
Or I wonder if the interview request was reflected in the portal for people who were notified?
is there a decision status portal? i thought that nyu doesn't notify through a portal?

I'd imagine it's Courtney Malenius (courtney.malenius@nyu.edu). I emailed the department once about my application and they referred me to her.
Yeah, someone confirmed that NYU doesn't notify through the portal.
 
Hey guys, am international and was interviewed last week. If any of you feel like asking me some questions during this period of anxiety, I’m happy to answer. Hit me up through a personal message.

Congrats! Be sure to add your application to our database when you can.

And thanks for offering help!
 
I saw someone in the writing MFA thread got an interview request today, so might not be over for us!
Yes but I think they only started receiving interview requests last week (on February 23rd), not a month ago like us...but yes, fingers crossed!!!
 
Hey all,
When I called Nyu last week. I was able to to speak with someone from I believe the Tisch graduate admissions. She said they would be sending interview notifications late February and early March. The notification for decision would be sent out mid to late March. Not trying to give false hope just providing the information I got.

Wow this is so surprising! Thanks for sharing. This was for film or screenwriting?
