Hello All, I was active on this board last year having applied to Iowa, Yale, Brown and Juilliard. Rejected from Brown (expected) and Iowa, received nice letter from Yale about applying again, made it to second round at Juilliard. This year, it's only Juilliard. The process last year made me realize that I don't want to leave NYC.
@Lavendercloud: I do have a question about Juilliard and it's process... have they ever accepted anyone in their 40's? Because that's me. Late to playwriting and have been lucky so far with productions, award, last year I was a finalist for a Jerome fellowship. But after everything shook out in 2014, I wondered if I had been aged out of being really considered for the fully funded programs. Or maybe it's just sour grapes! Who knows. Ultimately, not something controllable, but curious none-the-less.
