Saint Elmo,

Please edit your post so that a bot will not attack Maureen's email box...replace "at" and "dot" with the words for the symbols.

Nobody deserves a bot attack...I recommend NEVER putting your own emails out without breaking them up for bots.

thanks, kayS and congrats, btw, and oh, didn't someone posted here ( i think its dharmagirl) that she got notified of acceptance on April 2, after being interviewed, March 20'sh? so, i think the admission committee is still deliberating, hopefully, lol

has anyone heard if any production/directing students have been notified yet? Jayimess you mentioned your friend heard back for cinematography, which goes hand in hand with directing. Does this mean no news is good news?

do u mind sharing us both your undergrad degrees

I transferred from NYU Film School to Wellesley (wanted a strong liberal arts foundation before film school) and received a degree in Peace and Justice Studies with a concentration in Social Rights.

Correct, last year I was informed on April 3 and my interveiw date (in NYC) was March 22 (for Screenwriting).

I know how much it sucks but hang in there, guys!

I'm a glutton for the punishment, I hope they keep me hanging.

In fact, I'm praying...PRAYING, that they'll keep me in suspense all summer. My wish is to be driving a moving van up to Westwood the night before the fall session begins, get to my new apartment and start unloading my stuff only to finally get that email on my blackberry "BETTER LUCK NEXT YEAR!"

Ah, if life could only be so perfect...oh well, time to watch Lost.

figured i'd join the discussion/freak out sesh. today sucked. i've decided to give in to the unknown. i have a feeling we'll know today, thurs the 26th. the magic 8 ball told me. good luck everyone. a guy i know told me last week "remember, carol burnett got denied by ucla when she applied..so don't feel bad if you don't get in." my response?? i punched him right in the face.

where's smell? i kinda miss her and her ranting, lol...

I'm here, my dear, don't you worry your pretty little head. I just fell asleep again and had some pretty terrible dreams. I was really upset yesterday about this terrible waiting B.S. and I went to the bookstore and found a book called What Film School Won't Teach You or something. I found it funny that both authors went to film school and paid all of that money and probably wouldn't have written the book without actually having gone to film school. But it cheered me up knowing that even if I don't get in to UCLA or USC, my dreams have not been crushed. And anyone else whose dreams are still alive by the end of this, I'm serious--we should definitely stick together and make something happen. What I guess I'm saying is...I love you...? Man, this all happened so fast. It feels like one moment I had my feet on the ground and the next...well, you happened. Love happened. I think it's time to consummate our love.

 

[saintelmosfire71]

lol, you crack me up, speaking of I love you's, just watched I love You, Man, and it was charmingly and hilariously funny, Paul Rudd's so adorable, the script's so Judd Apatow-esque, minus the Judd Apatow, lol, and that's refreshing, kinda like Role Models (with Paul Rudd as well)

 

[Sojouner]

I've been looking for this sneaky little imp by the name of Kumbayya...anyone seen him? A-hole stole my wallet.

Given the broad lapse in time between when people first heard of acceptances, and now, my theory is this: Accepted students got emails, and the unfortunate souls are left to wait for a letter in the mail. Time will tell.

And seriously, to those of you who were accepted but plan on attending elsewhere, give UCLA a call and let them know. It's the right thing to do. "Her life is in your hands, dude." - Brandt

That all said, this thread has been a great resource, and I sincerely thank those who have contributed. One love.

 

[saintelmosfire71]

that's possible, but still, like what dharmagirl said, she was notified April 2 last year, so they could still be deliberating @ this time. and dharmagirl, did you checked the boards last year? were there people like this year who got accepted before you did? just making a comparison, lol

 

[ArtVandelay]

Right on Elmo. That's what I'm hoping for!

 

[fiat.lux]

hey all. i just checked another discussion board and Orientalism said they would give him/her a decision this weekend. not sure what program Orientalism is for though.

 

[fiat.lux]

strike that...i'm assuming it's for direction/production mfa...sorry, new here.
