Good Luck Everyone

Oh wow. I had just convinced myself to relax until the 1st!

@Robin101
I kept telling myself ignore this forum, and anything related,
so I could avoid the neurotic thoughts
Going through my Mind...fail

I'm with you guys, I've been refreshing my email about 9000 times a day and am anxiously awaiting a response for DW.

Hey B.A
Where else did you apply to/what's your #1 choice?

 

[B.A]

@GradStudentMFA I applied to UCLA and Chapman, as well. I was going to apply to USC and LMU, but I had some issues with one of my recommenders forgetting to turn in their letter/falling off the face of the earth and didn't know if they would ever turn it in, so I figured I would save myself the added app costs for USC + LMU. I digress...

I got into Chapman, but it's definitely my 3rd choice, and I'm not even sure if I would go at this point.
I'd have to say UCLA is my first choice. What about you?

@B.A

Ultimately, I made the decision "NYU or bust"
New York has always been my #1 city and when
I first went through the programs, NYU called to me.
I regret not applying to more schools
as a backup or looking in to other cities, but meh.
Any of the grad schools you applied to will be great.

I saw on a different forum that one person was getting an interview. I'm also a dw applicant. Screenwriting concentration.

I did hear on the floor there were some informal DW interviews this year. They are a tricky bunch. After two years of no interviews, they bring 'em back. There must be something about our class they don't want to replicate next year...

As I understand it, not everyone who's accepted gets an interview. So, don't stress if you haven't heard anything.

I haven't kept up with the boards this year, but there's usually 2-3 waves of rejections, then waitlist notifications, then acceptances.

I'm happy to answer any questions I can via PM.

Tomorrow is the last day until NYU's spring break. Safe to assume we won't hear any news until at least Monday the 25th?

Has anyone spoken to admissions?

 

[finalcutbro]

I have a strange feeling that the administration does not go on break though... So maybe the next week? Judging from past year's thread, looks like decisions come out around march. 15th to march 20th.

 

[GradStudentMFA]

Anyone taking bets on the date?

 

[tmt]

19th wait lists
20th acceptances

 

[GradStudentMFA]

Is that a bet or fact @tmt

 

[tmt]

i'm feeling it

Hi everyone

I spoke to admissions yesterday and they said that they were hoping to receive decisions (from dw not sure about the other streams) today and that it takes a few days to process all the applications, so hopefully decisions by wed at the latest. But, can't be too sure!

 

[TWS]

Anyone got rejected yet? or is everything going out at the same time?

 

[jennifer.hightower2]

Last week was spring break. Did they work over spring break? I was expecting to hear from them next week. I guess we will all find out soon enough.

 

[redfishbluefish]

I think spring break is this week, but I'm not sure if administrators/admissions folk are off..

 

[finalcutbro]

Last year's spring break was from March. 12th to 18th, and from last year's thread, decisions were announced from the 15th to the 20th or something. And right now is their spring break, so I am guessing the decisions are coming out later this week to earlier next week.

Now's time to call for inner peace again...

 

[jennifer.hightower2]

Ooooh, I guess each school does it a different week. Well, I figured it would be next week until we heard from them anyways.
