NYU Graduate Film 2020

I just want to restate because I really don't want everyone to panic: not getting an interview notification yesterday does NOT mean you are not going to get an interview. Every year that that filmschool.org has collected data shows that not all interview invites are sent out at once. For example, look at the attached from 2017. 3 sent out on Feb 8th, 4 sent out on Feb 10th, one sent out on Feb 28th. Every other year is similar.

It's not yet time for apocalyptic thinking.
Here's the raw data in the database for NYU sorted by interview notification date.

Hello everyone,

Does anyone know if NYU provides any funding for school films? AFI, for instance, provides $4,700 for each Cycle film (so that's 3 times in the first year) and $13,000 for each Thesis film.

NYU doesn't fund any of the First Year projects, and I think you get a couple thousand for the Second Year film. But they do help you locate funding sources and grants I believe. You should hit up the AMA threads. Current NYU Tisch Graduate Film Student - AMA!
 
is it weird that I didn't get any vimeo views from NYU? (did not get an interview request)
I believe I read somewhere in the application that we shouldn’t worry if the view count doesn’t go up as it’s common. Not sure if it’s because they use a third party program or because they watch the material only partially maybe.
 
I have not heard anything yet either. Hoping for the best for us all in the coming weeks!
