Thank you! Yup, I can log in and submit my intent to register for Fall 2013!
That means that if you cant log in, there's nothing in the mail.. :( </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
Wrong. People have received hard mail acceptances before being able to log-in, while others were sent e-mail acceptances before accessing camel.

I've been lurking for a while. I think it's about time I contribute. I am from NYC. I tried to login to camel a couple weeks ago and couldn't get in, then Thursday morning I tried and couldn't get in. I tried later that day and was logged in successfully. I tempered my excitement. I've been watching my email like a hawk. Still no luck. When I saw someone get an acceptance letter I ran down to check my mail and nope it wasn't there. How accurate is camel? Because I am super anxious. I have an interview with Columbia tomorrow and would love to know before I go for that interview.

I'm in the same boat as you, Prime(Tim)e. I've been able to login to Camel since Tuesday, but still haven't received an official acceptance. I also have a Columbia interview coming up. My guess is that USC is sending out acceptance letters via snail mail only, and they're taking a few extra days to reach the East Coast. So, no need to panic.

Good luck on your interview.
 
@Willie Thanks man, good luck to you too on the interview.

I was thinking the same thing, since the person who got their acceptance was in LA it probably got to him quicker than it will get to us. Hopefully it gets to us early next week. What's your first choice?

I actually really like LIU's program which is really new and I've been accepted but I feel like if you get into USC or Columbia you have to go.
 
Grrr...
My application status still says "submitted." I called the school of cinematic arts a week or two ago and asked if everything was in order. The guy on the phone assured me that they had everything and the application was marked as complete. Seriously, if they've selected all of the applicants they want to admit this year, they should at least change the status of the applications. Thinking about calling AGAIN tomorrow.
 
Note: what I am about to say is educated speculation based on the last couple of years of UCS Film and Video Production posts on this forum...

With that being said, I think everybody that has not heard anything and cannot login via camel is still fine for a least a number of more days up to a couple of weeks from now. It seems like USC has been a little erratic with their notifications over the last couple of years. Sometimes the camel login works first, sometimes people receive an email acceptance first, and sometimes a snail mail notification.

Good luck all! :)

Hello,

USC Film & Television Production and UCLA Directing / Producing applicant here. Did the USC phone interview a few days ago and have UCLA's interview March 10th. Glad to join this thread and wait this out with everyone else!
 
hi,
I wish I found this earlier. I received a request for a skype chat 2/13. In the email the professor said he was very impressed with my grad film and tv production app. We had a 40 minute interview on 2/16 in which we discussed mostly the school and aspects of my submission. He was very encouraging and said that I should hear with in the next month. This week I received two rejection letters from other schools so I'm very nervous right now. I can't log into camel yet and no email or letter. I was wondering who out there has had a similar experience and if they have received any sign of acceptance yet. Thanks and good luck to everyone.

Don't worry if you can't log into camel there are no certain orders of logging in first or get the letter first, based on people's post earlier, it seems that they are sending out letters these days. Let's wait and see.

Good luck everyone!
 
Hello Everyone

I just received my acceptance letter (first class mail) to Fall 2013 Film and Television Production MFA Program in the USC School of Cinematic Arts. I live in Ames, Iowa now, hope it can offer you some sense when you can receive yours.

Good luck to everyone.

Oh boy, I've been able to log into Camel since last Thursday but I checked my mail on my way out to Columbia interview and then on my way back in and nothing. But maybe the mail hasn't been delivered yet because I haven't received any mail at all actually.

Congrats to everyone who has been accepted officially so far!!!
 
Hey Guys Just got accepted to USC!!!! Email notification so it seems like they are doing it all different ways. I was on Camel since last Thursday for anyone asking.
