Not yet - I can only assume the rejection letter is in the mail at this point, but I also don't know if they rank candidates and contact them round by round. I thought I'd have heard something (positive or negative) by March 1st but now I'm just playing the dread the mailbox game:)
Will keep hoping (also don't know if they strictly contact by phone or if email is also a possibility) but will also keep posting.
Hey!
I actually didn't apply anywhere else - not because I think I'm a shoe-in (far from it!) but because of all the MFA programs I just liked UMASS the best. I've got a pretty good directing/teaching gig right now so I'm trying to not to be heartbroken if it doesn't happen but I really liked the overall program philosophy and have heard good things from former students. I had this arbitrary span of this week to hear about an interview but am trying not to psych myself out!
Best of luck and keep us posted:)
Hey all!
Bit late to the game but am getting pins and needles sitting on my hands trying to refrain from calling and checking on the status of my application. I applied to the Fall 2012 MFA Directing program at UMass Amherst and am still waiting to hear. If anyone has heard anything (interviews etc) could you post put a gal out of her misery? I know most applicants hear around this time but the suspense is killing me.
Good luck to everyone out there, this is excruciating!
