I applied to Columbia and NYU as well except I applied for the MS program for Columbia not MA but I am just as clueless as you when it comes to interviews. It looks like some people already got some response and others didn't. I completed my writing test but no clue what to expect in terms of interviews. Hoping we all hear back soon!

 

Thank you for sharing!! Congrats on USC's program! 

My friend is currently enrolled in the MS program at Columbia and she did not have an interview as part of her process. She spoke to multiple her friends in the program and only one of them had an interview. So, it seems it's not standard for the MS program, but wish I could get an answer on the MA! I thought I remembered reading when I began my application that there were no interviews as part of the process, but of course now I can't seem to find where I read that. So, who knows! I just want to hear back already ?

Congratulations to whoever announced on the main page that you got into USC. Curious to know which program you got a notification from. I noticed that they extended the deadline to February 15. 

Was v curious about this too!

Northwestern is making calls for 1st and 2nd rounds.

I don’t have a US phone number (they don’t call unless you do), so I guess I’d not know either way! For round two I figured they’d start first week of March, but they’re doing now? Have portals been updated? Good luck!! Ah!

I applied second round and received a call. Portal also updated. Good luck to all.

Congratulations! That is amazing. No updates on my end— application still in review on portal. Fingers crossed. Still, congrats to you!

Hi! :)

Don't worry about it!

I applied for the MA (Politics concentration) -- and I was told by the admissions office that they send out decisions in mid-March...

 

Fingers crossed!

Curious about that USC update to the results page! Are we meant to be hearing soon? I applied with the 10 January deadline, but I did see they extended the deadline to like mid February (I think?). They have so little info about decision dates on the website so wouldn’t be surprised if it was very rolling. Any thoughts? Hope all is well!

Did you hear back from USC yet? I got accepted last night and saw some others got accepted days before so I agree that it's possibly rolling?

Has anyone who applied for the multimedia specialization at UC Berkeley heard back?? I see some documentary and narrative writing people have, but I'm not sure about multimedia. Not hearing back yet is killing me! I wish they would've just let everyone know the same day lol

Just emailed a guy on the admissions committee at USC. He said decisions are being sent out today. Wishing the best for you!

Good luck to everyone. I applied for MA / Specialty Journalism. I haven't received anything yet, and now I'm nervous. EEK!

Same. I put multimedia in my application ... haven’t heard back since the interview last month.
