I know what you mean @esfg1 my letter was not particularly encouraging and was pretty formulaic. Congratulations on opening night! I hope your play has a great run, may it be the first of many.
Thanks @TBA1982! Sadly, it's a rejection but it's a relief to finally know. All the best for your interview! I live in New Haven, let me know if you want recommendations!
@SeaLou I'm sorry to hear that *hugs* The letter sounds kind and encouraging, tho! Just wondering how you checked your Yale status since the link to the online application tool on the school of drama page is not there anymore?
Hello! I'm interviewing with Columbia this Saturday too. I'm a fan of David Henry Hwang and Lynn Nottage's work so just being able to meet them will be a treat. Good luck to everyone else who is interviewing!
I have to say this community is really comforting in these nerve-racking times. I got a missed call from a 909 area code this morning and while my sane self knows it was probably telemarketer, I tried to call back four times. Keep on keeping on everyone!
@SeaLou No I have not, I thought for a long time about emailing them today but since I don't have a compelling enough reason like another offer, I think I'll wait a couple more days. I do agree that there's probably a lot going on behind the scenes.
Thanks @SeaLou ! It went alright, I asked some questions about the program and talked about what I'm interested in working on. I totally forgot to ask about when decisions would be made.
On another note, I feel like I'm in no-man's land with Yale - no rejection letter so far and now the link to the application page has been deactivated. Anyone else in the same situation?
I'm waiting for notification from Yale too, the minutes pass too slowly. Beginning to think maybe something's wrong with the portal? Glad to know I'm not alone!
Yay! Great to know that I'm not the only one nervously sitting on my hands. Anyone else checking their email obsessively only to find yet another coupon? Or heart skipping a beat when an unrecognizable number calls only to find out it's a bogus free vacation in the Bahamas? Thanks for all the timeline tips @SeaLou and @greenchile!
