USC Screenwriting MFA - Fall 2019 (4 Viewers)

I ran around Disneyland all day for Adventureland Day. It was super effective as a distraction. Buuuuut now I'm home. Staring at my laptop.

ALSO. Y'ALL. I have also had the USC admissions dream. What weird hive mind crap is this?! ?

Me. Tooooo. Last night. Woke up several times and thought it was real. I was packing to leave icy slippery shivering cloudy gray Montreal and everything.

Same dream haha! I think it shows how much we all care and how bad we want this. Best of luck to all of us in these last few moments of hope.
 
I didn’t see anything but when I checked social media I didn’t see anything either, so maybe they didn’t send anything this weekend?
 
Me if I have to wait another week:

I just want a definitive answer at this point.
 
How long were the accepted applicants given to pay the fee/accept the offer? Two weeks? There was a high number of acceptances here last week... So it's more likely that they sent it all out during those three days. Any acceptances now are from spots opening up, which isn't too likely. Just my guess.

I’m not sure about this only because other programs at USC still haven’t sent out notifications. I also would still assume they’d send out people who are wait listed before then, plus a two week turnaround would be insanely quick.

That would be....so depressing. But also sounds right at this point ☹️
 
What time did those accepted check their portal?

Also I can't help imagining a new scribe for the department running around with the letters then tripping on his toga and all the letters fall everywhere and that's why we haven't gotten them yet :)

Yeah it sucks. :( Even looking back at the docs, all the acceptances recorded here were in a span of three days, not two weekends. Except one in 2017. A single person got their acceptance a week early than the rest. There may be more that just didn't add theirs to the google docs though. I haven't reread the past forums. There's still hope, I just don't think we'll see a mass of acceptances released like last week.
 
I think it might be time for me to accept the inevitable :(. Putting all my chips on my second pick, AFI!
