NYU Tisch MFA Filmmaking 2012

[Brusco]

I applied to Tisch Asia but was offered NYC in the acceptance letter. As far as I can tell I was one of the first interviewees for directing.

That's great brusco! Would you have preferred Asia? Either way that's still cool. Im getting anxious!!! :-/

 

[HI FILM]

Anybody got any call or letter?

 

[LDPro]

Nothing yet HIFILM but I'm sure people will start posting as soon as they get it lol!

 

[HI FILM]

Brusco is one of the luckiest then

 

[Che Gray]

@Brusco what letter does your last name start with?

 

[LDPro]

Lol we are hounding Brusco! (sorry!)

Another long day of waiting almost over. I checked my mailbox 3 times today and god only knows how many times I refreshed my email!

Anyone else find this excruciating? Tips for coping?

 

[HI FILM]

That's what I do as well RoadDog No way for coping.

 

[RoadDog]

@HI FILM is this your second year applying?

 

[HI FILM]

no it's my first year for NYU but I applied to Columbia second time. for Columbia, I had interview last year and then waitlisted But They didn't invite me for interview this year. I'm waiting my rejection from Columbia.

i've been lurking for awhile and not posting (sorry), but i have an update:

i got an email from susan today around noon asking me to call her. i called and she gave me the good news that i got in. i interviewed a few weeks ago.

i'm really happy, but also nervous for everyone. i'm not just saying that because i went through this process last year and didn't even get an interview at NYU. sooo for anyone who doesn't get in...keep working, make more films, work on your writing and reapply. it works.

 

[HI FILM]

@wheretogo wow , what a good news

 

[Che Gray]

@wheretogo congrats! It was as we suspected (email then call). What discipline did you apply for and what letter does your last name start with? Is NYU your top choice?

 

[wheretogo]

Thanks guys!

I applied for directing/writing. My last name starts with C...so maybe that's a good sign for everyone else in that it's early in the alphabet? Who knows.

Good question on whether it's my first choice...I'd say yes, but it'll also be a financial decision.

Good luck to everyone!

 

[HI FILM]

Finally I am accepted. Last name starts with E. i got the email and called Susan. It s my first choice. Good luck to all friends here

 

[LDPro]

Congrats wheretogo and HI FILM!!!... this wait is theeee worst!!

 

[RoadDog]

Congratulations those who got in, what relief you must all feel!!

So for the rest of us, what now? Is that it? Do they do just one day of email/phone calls? Is it on to rejections and waitlists? So many questions, not enough answers! ugh.

 

[LDPro]

Calm down Road Dog! Lol they said to me we'd know by April 1st so that's a whole two weeks... But only two people posted about it anyway. I'm just remaining hopeful and if not just keep working hard.

 

[HI FILM]

Regarding the hour I got the email, i think they are around letter G
