USC MFA Fall 2014 (film & tv)

Hi The USC ID isn't the same as the username that you use to log into your application. Its a 10 digit number. I didnt receive mine. So I mailed them yesterday and they let me know mine. But I spoke to them on phone and they said that it didnt matter if we did or did not include the number. But I included my ID on the scholarship application. Hope this helps. Best of luck.

I'd take the time to find out your ID anyway - I'll bet it makes their life easier. Instead of having to query their system for you, they'll be able to find your stuff immediately with your ID.

I feel like Spongebob waiting for his toy in the mail....

"I'm waiting. I'm waiting. I'm waiting. I'm waiting..."

Regarding USC ID: I found mine by looking at the PDF version of my application. You can download the PDF of your application by logging into the online app (Apply Yourself) and click on PRINT FORMS. The USC ID is on the first page, near your personal information. I used this number for all my financial docs I sent to them yesterday.

Hi guys. So glad to find this place. I applied for MFA in Production. I hear USC doesn't invite all of its applicants for interviews. Anyone knows whether it's true?

 

[mcholman]

Yiding_GoFighting Hey there! Welcome!!

Yes, that's true. The applications are spread out through the professors, and it's up to those professors if they want to interview you before making their recommendations. I think we've only had a couple people in of this group say that they've either been interviewed or have one scheduled. Basically, not getting an interview request doesn't mean anything - it could be the professor that got your app doesn't like doing interviews.


@everybody_else anything new to report, people?

THX!My friend recieved USC MFA-animation interview via e-mail yesterday.but i didn`t receive it,so I am very nervous now.(But I still get the e-mail asking for the submission of proof financial support)
Did anyone apply the same program?Did you have receive the interview request?

 

[mcholman]

guraena Hi! Welcome!

I have not received an interview request, and I'm in the US so I don't have to provide proof of financial support. What program did you apply to?

In fact, why don't we all sound off as to what program we applied to? I've seen other threads compile a list - good way to pass the time.

Me: MFA Film & TV Production

 

[Ciara17]

Screenwriting applicant here. Does anyone know if USC interviews for screenwriters?

 

[Mate Boegi]

MFA Film & TV Production as well!

 

[G_F]

MFA Film & TV Production too

 

[mcholman]

I just received email confirmation that they have received my scholarship application! Took their time replying, but at this point any little peep from them is like an oasis in a desert!

We are on the same boat. I'm a MFA Animation applicant, no interview request, but received financial proof couple days ago. What's your application status?

My status has changed to the step3（forward to committee) about 1 month ago.I think it is just because I submitted earlier( in Oct.) But I still received nothing except the email asking for financial support.So when I heared my friend who applied same program getting the interview,I am nervous.
What about you?
I wish both of us will be lucky!

Thanks for letting us know! Do you know when USC will send out information about acceptances and rejections? I have no idea about this.

I haven't received any interview requests. Not getting an interview doesn't mean you are rejected, so take it easy. Are you an International student? What country are you from?
