USC Peter Stark Producing Fall 2024

hi folks! I'm a current Stark student. I remember being in your position last year, keep your hopes up! this is all a part of the process in your creative journey.
Glad to hear from you! I have a question are there any cases of students admitted to the program w/o an interview in the starky program? Since I didn't get the interview invitation, i might have to give up hope of getting in to the program this year:/

Does anyone know how long admitted students have to accept their offers?
From the 2024 Graduate Admitted Student Day page, it says "To accept the offer of admission, you must submit your Statement of Intent and non-refundable Commitment Deposit via your youSC portal by Apr 15, 2024 (or the deadline given on your admission letter)" so unless Stark had a different deadline, I'm guessing April 15th. It makes sense since the waitlist email said we'd hear more in late-April.

Long time lurker here, speaking up since this chat has gotten quiet LOL. I got waitlisted as well--anyone else who did, please keep this forum updated if you get off the waitlist! It really helps to hear how everyone else is doing :)
 
If anyone hears today from the waitlist please let us know!
Everyone who was admitted acceptted their spot, so I don't think that people will be getting off the waitlist unless anyone drops over the summer. But if anyone gets off the waitlist in the coming months, def would love to hear it!

I know this is from last year but do they inform you if you will not be receiving an interview/are rejected from the program?

Also, what kind of questions do they ask in the interview? Your help would be greatly appreciated! :)
