USC - MFA Film Production - Fall 2012

Cool! I meant like before, during previous admissions, or did you mean that this was your first time applying to USC? I might've understood wrong too.
 
Oh, my fault! I misunderstood.

I applied last year, but I didn't even make it to the interview round. I just flat-out got rejected. Is this your first time applying?
 
@JKL Congrats on getting into USC, i remember you from the Florida State Interview forum. Are you still going through with your interview with Florida State? Which one is your first choice?
 
JKL. Oh no worries. Well either way that's awesome that you got in!! Yeah I was asking to see what this wait listed thing worked. Anyway, yes this was my first time applying.
 
Received my official acceptance last night after scanning in my financial forms. Fall 2012 session

First time applying, for whoever asked above. I'm 21, just finishing up my undergrad.

Edit: Just for reference..does the Fall 2012 session cover fall and winter semesters? If so that would mean the Spring 2012 session covers Spring and Summer semesters right?

So the Spring session people get fall and winter off, and vice versa for the Fall session people?

and..oh no. I've gone cross-eyed.
 
Secret Riddle.In glad that you got your email after everything that went on yesterday. And, me too! I'm currently a Com Arts Major at ITESM in Mexico. I graduate May!

Thanks PremierGuy! I plan to attend the FSU interview session and hopefully, If i'm fortunate enough to get in there too, compare financials. Nevertheless, I had been trying for USC since last year, so I am partial toward picking USC as my first choice.

And congrats to all who have been accepted!
 
YAY!! We have some current undergrads other than me in the forum! I'm so excited for next year. Good luck to those admitted and for those who haven't hear anything it's still incredibly early!
 
Hey all I've been a lurker for awhile and decided to post on here. I applied to USC as an undergrad transfer.

I got all of my materials in on time but other than one letter from USC saying they received my application; I've heard NOTHING...

I know that it's still very early but I see that a lot of you guys have already been getting phone interviews and stuff (Congrats! BTW.)

My thinking is that because you guys are all applying to the graduate program they are just going through the graduate applications first and will get to the undergrad/transfers later. Please if anyone can give me some insight it would be greatly appreciated.

I am really starting to freak out USC is my first and only choice!

Pretty sure they're completely different timetables with regards to admission proceedures. I wouldn't get scared off by graduate admissions if you're an undergrad.

From my experience, I usually never heard back from undergraduate schools until March.
 
Mrselfdestruct transfer applications were due early February so I bet it's still way early. Grad apps were due in December and we are just hearing back.
 
Ok thanks guys that makes sense and really does help to ease my mind.

BTW I know that this is a graduate thread but are any of you guys applying as transfers as well? I would like to know who else is in the same boat.
 
I haven't heard from USC since my interview :(. Those that got in, are you ok with sharing your vimeo page? or your work if it's online?

you can check out mine at vimeo.com/kenimo

@kay0 which one was your 5 minutes piece for your USC application? It seems like you've worked mostly on music videos, is that the case? I'm sorry to hear that you haven't heard anything yet but I would not give up hope! It's great to have a fellow jumbo on the forum :)
