sybil Posted February 29, 2012 Posted February 29, 2012 Hi, Anybody here has received early admission to NYU's ITP program yet? I have applied for fall 2012. Any idea on when the decisions will start trickling in? Thanks, Sybil
NYCgee Posted March 8, 2012 Posted March 8, 2012 Me neither. I think last year letters were received in the last week of March.
jabrake Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 Haven't heard anything either. Same as NYCGee, I think we won't hear until the very last week of March or so.
helms02902 Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 Got accepted via email today. No scholarships though...not sure if I can stomach that sort of debt.
NYCgee Posted March 17, 2012 Posted March 17, 2012 (edited) congrats, helms. surprising that it's so early; bummer there's no scholarship money. tough decision. <sad face emoticon> I still haven't heard back myself, but am still under the impression that most letters will be sent out at about the same time as last year.

minderbinder22 Posted March 17, 2012 Posted March 17, 2012 (edited) I haven't heard either. They have a pretty high acceptance rate so I wouldn't worry much. I wonder why helms heard so early. Any hypotheses? Assuming you're the person who posted on the results page, maybe they did international applications first? Why on earth does it take them 4 months? Edited March 17, 2012 by minderbinder22
jabrake Posted March 17, 2012 Posted March 17, 2012 I also got my acceptance letter (via e-mail) yesterday. Not sure why I got it so early - perhaps it is international applicants first? Best of luck to all of you!
minderbinder22 Posted March 17, 2012 Posted March 17, 2012 (edited) Congratulations helms and jabrake! Where else did everyone apply? I only applied to NYU and parsons. Edited March 17, 2012 by minderbinder22
sybil Posted March 17, 2012 Author Posted March 17, 2012 @Helms and Jabrakes: Congrats! Are you guys International applicants? I guess International students need to get visas and stuff so early notification helps. @Minderbinder22: I agree, I've heard that the acceptance rate is 1 in 3 at ITP.
minderbinder22 Posted March 18, 2012 Posted March 18, 2012 I think it might be even higher than 1 in 3? At the information session he said there were 3 times as many applicants as there are students. But that would mean they have to accept more than a third since not everybody accepts. Or maybe I'm not remembering correctly.
jabrake Posted March 18, 2012 Posted March 18, 2012 @sybil: yep, I'm an international applicant - although I already live in NYC (on a work visa). @minderbinder22: I only applied to NYU, I was running quite the risk haha. I also heard the acceptance rate was 1 in 3.
minderbinder22 Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 Looks like lots of people got their notifications on March 18th or 19th last year. Some on the 22nd. Maybe we'll hear soon.
NYCgee Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 just following up on what minderbender said, march 19th was the 2nd to last weekend of march LAST year. the second to last weekend of march THIS year is NEXT weekend, the 24th and 25th. dunno if that helps anyone, but that got me to stop checking my inbox every 5 minutes.
minderbinder22 Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 Yeah I'm not expecting it today. But hopefully sometime this week.
sybil Posted March 19, 2012 Author Posted March 19, 2012 Hi MinderBinder22 & NYCgee: I'm with you on the waiting-for-decision syndrome. Nervous and am checking my email every 10 mins or so. Sybil
minderbinder22 Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 (edited) check the results search. 3 people got accepted today. Let the compulsive e-mail checking recommence. Edited March 19, 2012 by minderbinder22
sybil Posted March 19, 2012 Author Posted March 19, 2012 How many do they admit per class? 110? Does anybody know?
NYCgee Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 hm, make that +1, minderbender. I just got my letter. g/l, everyone!
minderbinder22 Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 (edited) hm, make that +1, minderbender. I just got my letter. g/l, everyone! Congrats! I'm giving up hope for the day. Maybe tomorrow. I wonder why they do it like this. Edited March 19, 2012 by minderbinder22
thinkrSam Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 Got my acceptance letter yesterday! super excited! Just curious..what do you guys intend to study (specialize in?) at ITP? I am an electronics engineer.. i'll be more into physical computing/ geeky art installations. bt you never know..NYU seems like a place that can change you.. And btw, where are you guys from? I am from India. Yes, the trend seems like intl students first..
kwangde7 Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 (edited) Congrats for those who have been already accepted! I was checking with Midori Yasuda in the morning and she said that they are sending out emails now. Since there are many applicants, it takes time to send notice to all applicants. But she said we will get an email announcement anytime soon. Best of luck for everybody who applied for ITP! Edited March 20, 2012 by kwangde7
mariapaulasaba Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 Hi guys, I'm also international and received my acceptance yesterday by email. I was also accepted at Parsons Design Technology program, with 50% scholarship so I'm not sure what to do... Any thoughts?
minderbinder22 Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 (edited) @thinkrSam: I'm from DC. India is awesome. What area are you from? @kwangde: good news! @mariapaulasaba: I also was accepted at Parsons, but without funding. only two schools I applied to. I prefer Parsons a bit more I think but I don't think I can do it without funding. We'll see what happens with NYU. Edited March 20, 2012 by minderbinder22
