Tisch Asia Acceptances 2012 (1 Viewer)

Wow, that was like a wave of people getting accepted. I got an email saying they needed a scanned copy of my official transcript. I guess I won't be finding out until next week. I hope I can join you guys on facebook
 
whoaaa sounds like everyone who was accepted also got money. maybe they automatically give people scholarships as an added incentive to study in singapore (as opposed to ny)?
 
Hey guys. My name is Ping-Wen, from Taiwan. I got accepted with grants by NYU Tisch Asia yesterday. However, I also got offer with scholarships from Loyola Marymount University, LA.

I really want to go to U.S. to feel and see the different culture and have some new ideas, while I also love the curriculum and teachers of NYU Tisch Asia so much.

I wonder how you guys will choose. Just want some advice. Thanks.
 
Hello All! Ann Marie Elliott, from the US. New here, but I've just been accepted with Playwriting, with money! I've been looking for a way to start getting to know people who will be attending these courses with me in the fall, and this seemed like the best place.

I look forward to getting to know you!
 
Hello, all! I was accepted to NYU Tisch Asia yesterday via email. Also, with a scholarship. I'm definitely going to take the opportunity so it's nice to hear someone of you are going too.

Some background: I took my undergrad in Hawaii (HPU) and received my degree in Multimedia: Video Production. I currently live in the Bay Area, CA. I didn't apply to any other schools, so I got super lucky.

Can't wait to meet you all soon! :)

That's a tough call. Loyola is in LA, so you'd be in the hottest filmmaking spot in the world. May I ask what your majoring in Ping-wen?

Hey all, congrats to everyone that got accepted! I heard some mention of scholarships?? Can anyone figure, more or less, after the scholarship, how much it will cost to attend? My plan is to apply here in November.

Thanks

From what I've read the cost of school (without living expenses) on average is around $46,000. Tisch Asia told me they are unable at this moment to give full schollys, but that a large amount of their students receive aid. I checked the site and the scholarships range from a max of $15,000 to like $500. So as you can imagine even if you receive the maximum scholarship there is still a hefty price tag.
 
I wsa accepted in Tisch Asia with a $14,400 scholarship (which is eligible for renewal for the second year as well).

I currently torn between Tisch Asia and Calarts, which offered me a little over $11,000 in scholarship + work-study (working isn't a big deal to me at all).

Jennifer, thank you for reply. I major in Film Production and I aim to become a director. How about you? : )

Hello to all. My name is Kathleen and I was accepted to Tisch Asia for Dramatic Writing after initially applying to the New York campus.
 
I have a sneaky feeling I'd like to confirm. Did ANYONE not get accepted into Dramatic Writing at Singapore? Did anyone not get a scholarship? (I got 15,600).
 
Just to clarify, one cannot transfer from Singapore to NYC, right? I know it being grad school makes it unlikely, but honestly in terms of "learning" I think it would make a world of sense to be able to spend one year in Singapore and one in NYC, theoretically classes are the same but you'd also get what both programs offer in uniqueness. Again i don't think one can do this though.

And Ignatius I haven't heard of anyone not even receiving money from Singapore let alone not getting in. I'd agree it seems odd.
 
I got accepted on Thursday last week for filmmaking with a scholarship (17,000$)! I'm not sure if I can afford the 50 grand tuition yet so I'm on the fence whether I can actually attend. :(
