UCLA MFA 2011 (Screenwriting)

GenerallySpeaking, LOL...I know. I wasn't on top of it since hearing we wouldn't find out until April, so I was completely shocked. And tomorrow's my birthday...perfect! :)

Happy Almost Birthday, SheScribe! You'll have double the reason to celebrate.

I am still a little bit in shock. I'm also kind of under the weather, so I'm just feeling weird overall! But weirdly excited!

Sorry birdude, but if I'm not mistaken, three out of four of us were rejected the first time around and accepted the second time around.

It's competitive out there.

Good luck, everyone!

Exactly. I didn't get in last year either, so this was my second time applying.

And thanks for the bday wishes!
 
I got my email at 10:45 EST. Honestly I'm shocked because I was incredibly nervous during my interview and was sure I didn't do well. It lasted less than 15 minutes and a lot that was professional program talk. Regardless I am unbelievably pumped right now. I don't know how I am going to concentrate for the rest of the day at work. Congrats to everyone!
 
It was my second time applying as well. Look forward to meeting SheScribe, Turner, and GenerallySpeaking22. Good luck to everyone else! Wish you all much success in your MFA pursuits.

I wouldn't panic yet. You never know until you get an e-mail saying yes or not this year. So, my fingers will be crossed for good news. :)
