I think it was optional. I could be completely wrong if it varies based on specialization. I applied for magazine. Good luck!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jennifer7 Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 I was accepted during the first round of Medill acceptances and they called me around 3:30pm CT on a Friday! I don't know if they'll do something similar for the second and third rounds but if it makes anybody feel better if they don't call today I wouldn't stress ? anna23 and Zb17 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Journo99 Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 anyone have any idea if Columbia will be out today or tomorrow? So anxious and can't handle the waiting game. Last year was on Thursday the 12 so really hoping!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoping we hear soon though! On an amazing note, I got a call today from NYU with my 'unofficial' acceptance. Couldn't be more thrilled! I was so excited and caught off guard on the phone because I didn't think they'd be calling, that I sounded totally flustered and probably like a crazy person... but I was just so excited!!! Ahh congrats!! Hoping I hear back from them soon so I don’t have to stress so much, even if it’s a rejection lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

journo5 Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Has anyone heard about financial aid from Berkeley yet? I got an email that I was recommended for admission last week and to expect an email with financial aid details sometime this week... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caffeinecoffeetay Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 I haven't heard anything from Berkeley Financial Aid yet. Does anyone know if that would be an email, a call or to check on their actually account created for the application? It's also nice to see this form actually active. I've been really stressed about the entire process. I have received acceptance from American, Northwestern, UC Berkeley and NYU (Magazine). I'm waiting to hear something back from Columbia (M.S.), USC (M.A.) and Craig Newmark Grad School of Journalism. Has anyone hear anything from those schools yet? I know CUNY said they'd release admissions next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I realize i got that email in October when i was dealing with an emergency so I didn't even see it aghh. Well, that's disappointing. I'll call them tomorrow but i assume since I didn't schedule an interview, I'm probably out. I'll call them tomorrow but that's a bummer. At least I've got Berkeley and USC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

journo5 Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 Congrats!!! And thanks for letting us know!! Really really hoping to also hear from Columbia and Berkeley financial aid today so I can start with the decision making this weekend, it’s gonna be tough. I’m also in at NYU, I think $$$ is going to be the biggest deciding factor for me. anna23 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

journo5 Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 Okay I also just got an acceptance call from Medill! But, they said financial aid info won’t be out until possibly Friday of NEXT week ? honestly, the acceptances are meaningless to me without the financial aid info because I can’t attend without some financial support. I wish they’d realize that/prioritize getting the financial stuff out sooner. Here’s hoping to generous, need-based financial aid offers all around to the folks that need it ??

Yeah, I haven't heard anything at all from USC—denial or otherwise. I probably didn't get in then.

Yeah, unfortunately that is the process at Medill. When I received the call for financial aid for Round One, it was a email they sent late at night. Hopefully you'll definitely get some money!

barmilena Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 just heard back from NYU! accepted to the Business and Economic Reporting MA with some financial aid. I thought I was out actually, cause I didn't get a phone call, but maybe they didn't call because I don't have an US number. anna23 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
