anna23 Posted January 24, 2021 Posted January 24, 2021 Anyone heard back in terms of interviews, writing tests, or acceptances/rejections? I'm nervously awaiting results. Applied to 6 schools for Fall 2021!
Zb17 Posted January 24, 2021 Posted January 24, 2021 Also have not heard back from anywhere but have Medill interview next month
anna23 Posted January 25, 2021 Author Posted January 25, 2021 I applied to NYU, Columbia, Medill, Berkeley, and Stanford! What about you? My Medill interview is also next month ahh.. wishing you good luck! Zb17 1
Zb17 Posted January 26, 2021 Posted January 26, 2021 Very similar! NYU, Medill, Berkeley, USC, Georgetown. Also a few schools in the UK/EU (I am American but go to uni in the UK). How are you feeling about Medill interview? Good luck to you too!!! Also have you heard from Berkeley re: interview/writing tests? I know they have a massive uptick in applications this year (surely like everywhere else). I'm wondering if people are already starting to hear from them...

I'm wondering if people are already starting to hear from them... Oh cool! Those are all good schools-- USC has such a good journo program and I wish I applied but it slipped my mind! I'm excited for the Medill interview but kinda anxious as well. I guess I'm just anxious in general as I wait to hear back. I haven't heard anything from Berkeley yet which is weird because I already had a couple writing tests from other schools so I assumed Berkeley would have contacted by now as well. I think they may start contacting people in February? I'm not totally sure but I haven't heard of anyone else being contacted so far.
Zb17 Posted January 27, 2021 Posted January 27, 2021 yeah definitely not sure but fingers crossed!! anna23 1
doe123 Posted January 28, 2021 Posted January 28, 2021 I applied to Berkeley, USC, NYU, Columbia, Northwestern Medill and am currently in the process of applying for Boston University. i also plan to apply to Georgetown's journalism program. I haven't heard from any yet and am soo nervous. I thought Berkeley would contact this month but haven't heard anything.. been so nervous. Reassuring to hear that no one here seems to have heard back yet. Fingers crossed! anna23 and Zb17 2

Reassuring to hear that no one here seems to have heard back yet. Fingers crossed! So strange about Berkeley right? I know they’ve got crazy crazy amounts of applicants because of the work they did with the NYT for covid coverage, and obv the covid uptick but def nerve wracking. Wonder if we’ll hear anything soon. Have you done your Medill interview?

Chrisehrm Posted February 13, 2021 Posted February 13, 2021 (edited) Trying to keep up with all the different threads lol but I have an interview next week and didn't hear about a writing test! Wishing everybody good luck in their interviews. Also for people with Berkeley, how long is your interview supposed to be? Edited February 13, 2021 by Chrisehrm
hello_91 Posted February 16, 2021 Posted February 16, 2021 (edited) Hi! How did your interview go? Mine is tomorrow! Edited February 16, 2021 by hello_91
Chrisehrm Posted February 18, 2021 Posted February 18, 2021 Just updating here: had my interview today, 20 mins, and it went well! There was some technical difficulties and I only interviewed with one person after a little but they were nice! Crossing my fingers! I heard things are going out early March.
doe123 Posted February 22, 2021 Posted February 22, 2021 i too had technical difficulties! Mine was 20 mins but my zoom wasnt working so -7 minutes but they were both very nice. Hoping the best for you! We'll hear back in early March apparently ahhh
doe123 Posted February 27, 2021 Posted February 27, 2021 nope- I suspect we'll hear back in early-Mid March.
Chrisehrm Posted February 28, 2021 Posted February 28, 2021 Just wanted to update: Berkeley is likely starting admitting people, I just got the call for recommendation for admission! anna23, WKW, hello_91 and 1 other 4
