I'm applying to UCF, USC and NYU: Tisch in Singapore Program. NYU and UCF interviewed me but I'm still waiting. :| Since I'm a film student, the decision dates are pretty late. Are there any other film school applicants in this board? Why do these programs have early application deadlines (Nov 15) but late decision times (April 15th was the earliest one I heard)
It's just not the same experience as MA applicants. A lot of posts are about test scores and GPAs which aren't the deciding factors for MFA programs. It's all about the portfolio. Plus, I have just been interviewed for some of the programs I applied to and nobody I know has heard back from the MFA programs. (I'm going for a film MFA)
