Just got rejected.
But given the stuff I submitted, I was actually pretty surprised that I got an interview in the first place.
Good luck to those that haven't heard back yet!

Also, please don't forget to log your application with the dates and other info. Especially with UCLA as they've changed a lot of their timings and procedures recently I believe.

It's extremely helpful to everyone this and following years.

I have not heard back from UCLA yet, I had an interview early February, I am assuming i got rejected. Anyone else not hear back ?

hey y’all! I received an email last week from the department saying that they recommended me to the graduate admissions. The official decision letter is pending a degree audit — wonder if anyone got the same thing? Does that mean I’m accepted ? I haven’t heard back since then and so nervous everyday

If the FTV department has recommended you to the graduate admission then they consider you accepted into the program, pending University Admissions can confirm you hold a Bachelor's degree. So-- yes! Congrats!

for those that just attended the ucla mfa zoom session, what were your guys thoughts?

 

[Moe]

Just wanted to say I was admitted on the day that all the TV track notices went out (March 12th). Just declined the offer to go to USC though, so someone should be getting off the waitlist soon!

 

[lafarrr2]

Did anyone heard back about the off waitlist？

 

[lafarrr2]
