well first--congrats maybe future possible classmate! If I may ask, how are you planning on doing that? I'm autistic and this kind of correspondence absolutely terrifies me

Wow, I am in at NYU off the waitlist....I am extremely confused! I had totally given up, and started planning my life without grad school this year and now suddenly it's a possibility again. I did receive a scholarship, but I would probably still go into a little bit of debt. I'm assuming I'm not in a position to ask for more money. Is anyone else in a similar situation? Do you think I'm able to reach out to current students and see if they're able to work/etc?? I was not prepared for this so I have no idea what to do!!!

hi! haven't posted on here a ton but I just had my NYU interview with Lucas Hnath--and it went super well! The program seems like a better fit for me than I thought and he was very kind, had read my play and liked it (!) and it felt very lowkey and low pressure. It was also very short, about 25 minutes. He did mention that he's not actually on the admissions committee so if you're interviewing with him keep that in mind. I've been lurking here for a while and ruminating in all of your successes, so, hi, and also, congrats to everyone on their interviews and acceptances and also just for doing the damn thing!! we're almost at the end!!

hi! also a lurker and I applied to CSSD this year--I actually accepted an offer from them last year and didn't go due to covid, but I had interviewed/been accepted by like early January, so I'm glad to hear they're just taking their time this year! I applied to NYU, Brown, and UCSD as well we have a lot of overlap!
