NYU Tisch 2013

[sudarshansuresh]

I checked each page of this thread and I've counted only 8 calls for interviews (both producing and filmmaking). Judging by what Sara was told by the admissions department, they interview 100 to 110 of the 720 odd applicants. That leaves us with at least around 90 more interview calls. I'm also assuming that any serious applicant to Tisch (and all of the other schools) would definitely have hit upon this forum at some point and would be following it. So where are the 90 odd others who should be piping in and saying yes we've got our interview calls, now stop drowning in your own impatience.

If you're reading this and have received a call (or have some information) please drop a line and put us out of this misery.

By the end of last Friday all of the calls for NYU should've already gotten out. I'm afraid I have not obtained one and will be waiting for my rejection letter instead. I want to tell all who made it good luck its a tough program be strong and I hope to see your features in the future. To all the ones that didn't make it, its okay its just film school, it doesn't mean your self worth is less than what you think.

It was a good try, "A wise man once said don't be afraid of failure, but low aim is the crime, in great attempts it is glorious even to fail."

I received an interview call some time back, but I agree with Sunwukong. Film school is nothing more than a privilege. With the democratization of image making, I think such elitist traditions have long passed. Just look at the Gen X filmmakers who dominate Hollywood today, most of them did not attend film school.

Can I ask you when exactly you received the call?

Hey everyone! I've been actively following this forum since January. After seeing sudarshansuresh's post, I wanted to finally go ahead and post something.

I have been given an interview for this upcoming week. I received an email from Susan about two weeks ago.

Will anyone be at the interviews later this week? I'd love to meet up and chat over some coffee.

Try to privately message me. I don't want all my stuff over this forum

Hey Trilogyfan,

I received the same "we are considering your application..." email a few weeks ago. I figured it was a formality, but wasn't able to uncover any mention of similar emails to DW applicants in past threads (Including the link that dmtr recently posted from last year.. thanks for that btw).

Seems like most of the people on this thread are directing applicants. Maybe fellow DWers should break off with a separate thread, since our application process/timeline seems to be different?

 

[TrilogyFan]

Hi Redfish,

A separate thread might be good, but one sort of already exists here:

http://forum.thegradcafe.com/t...47-playwriting-mfas/

It's not all about one school, it's for all of them, mostly playwriting-emphasis, but there is more relevant traffic especially if you've applied to schools other than NYU.

not a word from Tisch since I submitted. I guess it's already a silent NO.Or maybe they have just ignored my application, since I may have it submitted a little late (right on Dec.1)

 

[pinsandneedles]

I'm losing track. Are those of us who haven't heard by now out of the running? This silence is very unsettling.

@pinsandneedles
No, I don't think so. I received a resounding "no" in the form of an email. The silence probably means you are still under consideration (if I remember correctly from earlier posts, you have made it to the second round but not yet the third interview round if you have not received that rejection email). Good Luck!

What's the second round? waiting to be substitutes for the third round?

Anyone applying to Writing/Directing have their interviews next week?

 

[Robin101]

I do. I have my interview on the 4th. I'm so nervous and excited. Plus, it will be my first time in New York.

 

[GradStudentMFA]

That's awesome @Robin101!
You'll be great!

Where are you coming from (school background)?
Did you apply elsewhere?

 

[pinsandneedles]

Has nyu sent out rejections yet? What does silence mean at this point?

 

[Robin101]

@GradStudentMFA Thanks! Are you also interviewing?
I also applied to Columbia, AFI and UCLA, but I haven't heard anything from any of those schools, so I'm just counting it as a loss and wishing the best for NYU.

 

[rosie1992]

Hey guys,

From my NYU experience last year silence could very well mean rejection (I STILL haven't gotten my rejection letter). If you're pressed then call, it'll help you sleep at night . For what it's worth when I called they were EXTREMELY kind and considerate.

My pleasure!
I ended up applying to NYU as my one and only choice (NYU or bust)
Kinda regret not applying elsewhere as
Back up, but I didn't even realize there
Was an interview process, so when I found out about
It, I decided to put all my effort into it
My interview is a week Thursday.
