I did it. I committed! I visited this weekend and after seeing it person, I knew almost immediately that it was right for me. Coupling the beautiful facilities with the endless opportunities in the city, it's undeniably the school for me.
 
I hope to see you guys in the fall! 

I used to be worried about going into journalism, and started having doubts about pursuing it as a career because of that quote. But now I see that journalism is evolving, not dying. Journalism school should give you all of the tools to keep up in a constantly changing field and to be a versatile journalist, who can adapt to change.
 
Writing is what I love to do, and I don't see myself doing anything else. Following your dream is more important than peoples' opinions about your dream, and dumb quotes.

Hey guys, just saw this thread! Was accepted for Journalism a while ago. However, I also just got into Syracuse. So it's essentially 'Cuse vs. NYU.
 
NYU has a better name, but it's also quite expensive. At least I still have some time to decide :/.
 
In the meantime, Magazine Writing anyone?    

NYU is having an open house?
 
@seandrivescars: magazine writing! me!

Me too, haha. I get a newsletter from a site I follow every night at 8pm. It took longer than I'd like to admit to expect the e-mail and not get my hopes up.

Hobbies are absolutely whats needed haha! I bought a fixie just to give me something to do (and to ride next year)!
 
In unrelated news, got my third acceptance today. Nothing to see here. 

since we're up to our necks in the waiting process now, we've had a lot of negative vibes on this board lately, so i wanted to share one of my favorite things ever: the calming manatee. 
 

 
calming manatee loves you unconditionally. it wants to make sure you're nourishing your body, as well as your mind and soul. 
 

 
calming manatee agrees: it's totally jerky of adcomms to make you wait so long, after you put so much work into your applications. 
 

 
still, calming manatee is just as realistic as you are, and understands that sometimes a tasty beverage is the best solution.
 
 
in general, this is now a thread full of soothing and smile-inducing things from around the interwebs. waiting and decision-making are really stressful, so i think we all owe it to ourselves to create a little refuge of good vibes to temporarily distract us all from the swirling vortex of dismay, worry, and apprehension. 
 
enjoy, friends 

Me too,but for journalism. also...what is msw?

MSW stands for Master of Social Work. I hope you hear back soon!

congrats!

Got my first acceptance today! This thread had me finally calmed down about it all too. But alas, one down.
