USC School of Cinematic Arts - Stark Producing Program 2022

Hello everyone! Long-time lurker here.

Did anyone on waitlist confirm their interest again since April? Any response from Stark to confirm receipt? I emailed them several days back and haven't heard back.
 
Hi everyone, quick question for those who have certified their intent to enroll. Could someone tell me how the payment has to be made? Is it wire transfer or with a credit card like an online store? I dunno if I can back out after clicking on the "pay commitment deposit", and I would like to make sure I have the appropriate resources allocated on the correct account before I do anything.

Please let me know and thank y'all so much!

Hello!!

I paid with a credit card like an online store. :)

Let me know if you have any other questions!
 
Is anyone else applying for the student assistant positions? Considering how few characters they gave us for our admissions questions I’m a little worried that there isn’t a front and center word or character limit—worried I may accidentally go over or end up cutting myself short worrying about a character limit that doesn’t exist 😂
 
I applied a few weeks ago and didn't seem to be any limit or anything like it. I did try to be as concise as possible because I assume they like that ahhaha
Very fair! I will try a similar approach.

When I confirmed my acceptance off the waitlist they emailed me back and mentioned that they would be getting back to the applicants for these as soon as possible after the deadline closes this Friday. So hopefully you will get to here soon Purple! Wishing you luck!
 
Hello all. Congratulations to everyone!! I recently got my acceptance into the program from the waitlist!!! I am over the moon and am so thankful. Cant wait to meet you all in person!
Congrats! Don't forget to add your application to our database to help others. :)

Congratulations! Just wondering, did they respond at all when you emailed them confirming you'd like to stay on the waitlist?

Hi Rosemary, sorry for the late reply. Yes, I sent them a detailed Letter Of Continued Interest - I got an email reply. I'm not sure if you sent a detailed letter and if you would like to discuss a strategy on that please let me know. Happy to help.

No worries! I didn't send a detailed letter but when I confirmed my continued availability and interest in April, I tried to reiterate my interest in the program. It would be awesome to get some tips from you/what your Letter Of Continued Interest entailed! Thanks so much.
