[kasrin]

dying to hear, hoping it’ll be on the earlier side of the week! Good luck everyone!

I got my acceptance notice about 25 minutes ago, so they've started sending! Good luck everyone!

Question by PATTY E on the film school 'NYU Tisch Kanbar Institute of Film & Television'

Hey there! I'm considering applying for 2026 class, and was wondering about the 120pg guideline, is it expected we hit 120pages for the full length play? Or is it wise to go off an idea of 90-120? Much love from Australia!

I haven't received an acceptance email yet, but my application status portal now has a net ID and university ID. What does this mean??

 

[renrichichi]

I’m seeing the same on my end! As well as an “awaiting waitlist confirmation form” so I’m assuming that means I’m waitlisted? Haven’t received an email yet thought

Yup, I've got the same exact page as you. I also think it means we're waitlisted, but I'm scouring the internet right now trying to find something to that says we have a chance. Haven't found anything yet lol.

Yeah I think this means we are waitlisted! Not rejected though! That’s definitely something

At least we got interviews! Good indicators for the next time around

 

[renrichichi]

True! I just want to get an email from them with info about like when we should hear back about getting off or rejected etc

Just got the email. woohoo. Waitlist!

 

[bg29736]

Also waitlisted!

 

[renrichichi]

still exciting tbh! It’s not a rejection which I was expecting

 

[franktjmackey]

Waitlisted as well!

 

[abross]

Got my email as well, rejected but not surprised. When I didn't get an interview request, I saw it as the soft rejection that it is. Best of luck to everyone else!!!

Congrats to all who got accepted and hopefully the waitlisted peeps get off the list and onto the program!

 

[Chris W]

Congrats everyone who got wait-listed and for sure don't give up if you didn't get accepted. Sometimes it takes many times.

Don't forget to log/update your applications.

To all those who have been waitlisted or rejected: let's make our own dramatic writing program. It'll be way cool and super lowkey.

 

[renrichichi]

Is there any one here doesn’t plan on accepting their spot on the waitlist or was accepted to other programs they perfer? Asking for obvious reasons but also if no one wants to answer that I completely understand.

 

[portiad]

waitlisted as well, which prompted me to reject my spot at a couple other schools in hopes people get off the waitlist there and good karma spreads!

 

[highlandspring]

Waitlisted also but beginning to think I don't need to spend $60k on this p.a.... will most probably reject my waitlist
