USC School of Cinematic Arts Film & TV Production Spring 2020

Hello there! I decided to stop lurking and comment. I am a first-time applicant and had a Skype interview over the weekend too.

I think that youSC being down has nothing to do with decisions coming out. Hopefully, we hear from them soon!

Has anyone heard back from USC yet?

 

[Lou]

[ReptiSticks]

anything from anyone?

Nope,
Just waiting...
I believe the school has a break during the 17th, & 18th.
So I'd assume today or tomorrow.

Well...

Today could be the day (fingers crossed). Good luck to you all. I have a feeling some decisions will be out today. If not today, then by the end of this week.

How's everyone else feeling? Positive? Confident? Nervous? All of the above?

has anyone heard anything yet? I am nervous

 

[ReptiSticks]

I got an email yesterday saying that my transcripts weren't in and my application would be dismissed if not in by Tuesday; but I believe I straightened the ordeal out.
Still very nervous and I don't know if this is a good or bad sign.
Possibly they just that they haven't decided yet.

Nothing yet from my end. I hope they reply soon this is nerve-wracking! Anyone else heard anything?

 

[Lou]

I will say the forum this year ain't very active compared to the past.
Although,
I don't know if I'd feel any better if it was active.

For spring threads it's about normal or even more active actually.

Hi everyone :) Just started this thread for USC Spring 2019 applicants to connect with each other. Anyone else planning on applying? Please feel free to post here. Good luck to all of us!;)

Last year's spring thread only had two pages by this point.

It's the regular fall threads that go ballbusters.

That makes sense less people apply in the Spring.

A year ago today someone got the first acceptance on the site:

USC MFA Film & Television Production Spring 2019

Hey gang, The forums from previous years suggest that interview notifications should be going out right around now, and admissions sent out in the next 1-2 weeks. Exciting times. Has anyone been contacted for an interview at this point? On another note, my video submission now has a total of 6...

Aughhh I was just accepted! Ohmygosh ohmygosh I’m literally shaking

I also saw the dates of first responses posted and decided to give it an update:

2014: Oct. 10th, 2013
2015: Oct. 16th, 2014
2016: Oct. 16th, 2015
2017: N/A
2018: Oct. 15th, 2017 (letter dated Oct. 14th)
2019: Oct. 19th, 2018

Seems like this pool of applicants are receiving admissions notification the latest compared to other years. Worth mentioning that the only other year that sent notifications over a weekend was Spring 2018 (Dated on a Saturday, received on Sunday).

Fingers crossed.
