UCLA Production/ Directing FALL 2020

[sguilford]

I had my interview! I overthought for no reason. It went great!

That's awesome! Mine was good, but I didn't love the questions they asked. I did it online and I think due to technical difficulties my interviewers were 20 minutes late. I definitely feel like I sold myself better in the LMU interview (and lo' and behold I was accepted there) whereas the application process and interview structure of UCLA didn't really give me the same chance to express myself. But I'm not complaining, I have great options no matter what UCLA's decision is.

Yeah they were 11 minutes late for me! I was legit in the middle of sending an email and then I was going to LEAVE. Then bam they popped up on my screen and didn't even acknowledge their tardiness. (but whatever lol) I liked some of the questions because it made me relax before the pitch but they were surprising and not like the other interviews I've had. It was way more chill. Like zero pressure. Maybe because they didn't have much to talk about based on what we submitted? Idk. But I'm not stressing over UCLA either. I think I know where I'm going already.

Was it a normal number? I missed a call yesterday but it was a weird number and now I’m wondering if it was them. Lol

My caller ID read it as one of the professor’s names and I’d been expecting an LA number for a bit. I was surprised to see an actual name

Um yeah I got an email saying I was accepted. Still getting over the shock

Based on info from years past, it seems UCLA notifies those accepted all on the same day. Keeping my fingers crossed to see if I made the waitlist.

Congrats to those accepted! Stay safe out there!!

Has anyone heard anything this week?

Has anyone heard anything this week?

nothing lol

 

[BazookaB]

I am tempted to write to them and ask!

 

[BazookaB]

Any news folks?

I wrote to them too but no response yet. I didn't make the interview cut either so I guess it's probably going to be a rejection. Ah well!

Congratulations to everyone who made it!

And wish you all are safe and healthy.

Hi guys
So I wrote to them and got an immediate response saying that “decisions will be made in the coming weekS.” I guess the waiting continues...

I just got a phone call yesterday --- I've been waitlisted! Wasn't expecting to hear anything after it seemed everyone else had already heard. It was a welcome surprise!
