just out of curiosity, for those of you who were shortlisted for interviews and/or got offered, did you guys submit the application before or after their recommended 15 November date?

I believe I submitted on the final day December 1st.

It was terrible lol. I decided to entirely re-write my 2-page story that same day after I finished work, then at 11pm realized I didn’t have my updated resume so had to do that in 30min. One of the most stressful hours of my life haha.

Hi everyone, so everyone who has received a scholarship has received $25,000? Is that only for the 2023-2024 academic year or for each of the three years?

I'm lucky enough to have a Spanish scholarship for the first two years, but I have to plan how to pay for that hypothetical third year... Or if it's worth the effort. I think it might be worth it though, even if I only managed to complete two years. Any thoughts? (I have been accepted by Columbia College Chicago and awaiting an answer from Columbia University)

I've sent email asking the same thing, Courtney replied saying it will be renewable scholarship which means if we maintain good academic performance, it should be renewable for each year.

There’re def some out-of-school scholarships that you can apply to. I’m also trying to see if there’re any teaching assistant opportunities.

Care to share?

 

[Arthrax]

Has everyone else had the email from Courtney about the grad school workshops/Q&A? I can only attend the virtual one as I'm in the UK (but it's also stressing me out a bit as I'll be at the Star Wars Celebration in London at the time ).

Also has anyone had any luck with obtaining more funding? I'm still completely stumped. I saw on the NYU website that there are some loans that international students can get but I think we need a US co-signer for them so I have no clue how to make that work either.

 

[degalder]

After much thinking, I will be attending NYU in Fall 2023. So I would love to connect to anyone else who has or will make the same choice. You can PM me or find me at @galder.irusta in IG or FB.

Good to luck to everyone in search for funding

 

[Arthrax]

That's fab news, congratulations! I'm still trying to work out funding but hope it all works out, I've followed you on insta

Does anyone know when we need to send off the scholarship reply form by? I can't find a date anywhere

Anyone who is able to figure out how to fund it if they can't afford it? Scholarships/advice, anything is welcome!

Hey y’all,

I hope to meet some of y’all tomorrow during the Zoom Admitted Students event.

In the meantime, I started a Facebook group. I’m a bit overwhelmed trying to figure out moving, housing, financial aid, etc., and I’m hoping I’m not the only one. I figured maybe we could all get to know each other and help each other out. On Facebook, the group name is NYU Grad Film Class of 2026.

Please join!

Abdul you are from Pakistan right? I'm guessing your situation when it comes to that is a little bit harder than mine, though mine is not great either(I'm from Portugal). My government doesn't have any grants for studying abroad unlike some other countries, but there is one foundation that offers aid, and so I applied to it. I would also advise you to email a presentation letter to any arts, film, governamental or not institutions in your country requesting extraordinary aid given the great opportunity it could for a Pakistan filmmaker to go to NYU TISCH, etc. Other than that there is also the list of external aid and scholarship institutions that NYU gives you. I would try everything, which is what I'm doing.
I really hope you can make it!! Good luck.
