Lorelei17 Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 Hello, I applied to NYU Cinematic Arts last year -rejected - and I'm applying again this year. however they are taking a long time to get back to me compared with last year and I was wondering if that's because I'm waitlisted and I don't know. Is that possible? Other people waiting out here are STILL waiting out for NYU letters? thanks! Hannah
Yellow#5 Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 It seems like they made acceptances for English Lit last week, but no rejections have gone out yet.
GoodGuy Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 Waiting to hear from NYU's American Studies program here...
Sonic Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 Last year Anese and I both heard good news from NYU American Studies on April 14th or 15th. So seriously, do not give up hope!
Lorelei17 Posted March 2, 2009 Author Posted March 2, 2009 Really? April!? But that's tough when you want to figure out your life before the "official deadline" of April 15! Any one got word from NYU earlier on? I got refused last year in mid February and I know Comparative Literature sent some decisions last week!
golonghorns Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 I'm still waiting. I called them and they told me they are still reviewing summer apps...so another month they said.
Lorelei17 Posted March 2, 2009 Author Posted March 2, 2009 So it depends on the department, is that it? another month is cruel!
KFF216 Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 Still Waiting here too. Environmental Conservation Education at Steinhardt. Will keep you posted if I hear anything!
nyfilmfest Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 Yeah, still waiting here too for Cinema Studies. It's still pretty early by NYU standards... give it a few weeks.
GenderMediaGrad Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 Yup, I'm still waiting on NYU- Media, Culture & Communications, PhD. Other people have already posted acceptances, wait lists and rejections for the program, so I feel like I'm in a weird, limbo position. Guessing that probably means rejection, but we'll see...
Julianoo75 Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 As indicated in another post, I've applied to NYU Institute for French Studies for a joint Phd program. Someone has put his result here on this site , saying he has been accepted by phone wednesday. So I emailed the secretary of my departement and she said that GSAS was generating decisions and mailing it, and that I would have an answer by mail before the end of March.... Is there anybody here that has seen acceptance results at NYU (emails or phone calls) on this site (table) and has not heard of anything yet ? To people like me : should we be pessimistic ? Thanks giving your opinion.
waitinginohio Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 still waiting on sociology, but I'm assuming it's a rejection because many people on grad cafe have been accepted or waitlisted by the department already.
letsjustgo Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 I'm waiting to hear from the Hagop Kevaorkian Center (Near Eastern Studies) at NYU. According to their FAQ site, the Graduate School of Arts & Sciences will not begin to mail admissions results until mid to late March. Big sigh... http://gsas.nyu.edu/object/grad.admissions.admissionsfaq
sunbabygirl Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 I applied to the Comparative Lit Department with a focus in Slavic Studies. Haven't heard anything yet. I truly hope they let us know ealier than in April.
gradhope Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 I am still waiting to hear from NYU- Steinhardt MA Higher Education program. I was told decisions would go out last week, but nothing yet and have not seen any posts on the results page. Not feeling confident though.
jino Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 Anyone applied to their CS program? I completed my app last Feb 5 and still no word till now. I'm probably sending them an email if I don't hear anything by March 13. Patience, grasshopper...
optimisticPOLITICS Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 Still waiting polsci I think its a rejection
peppermintgal Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 I am still waiting on NYU as well! I am assuming this means rejection...
KFF216 Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 I asked a colleague who was admitted to Steinhardt last spring about the schedule. He said he got his notice via postal mail after Spring Break - near the END of March. Not that they always do it the same way, but I think we may have a few weeks still to wait, although it probably varies from Dept. to Dept. I don' t think the delay automatically means rejection. (At least I hope not!!)
Lorelei17 Posted March 4, 2009 Author Posted March 4, 2009 hey guys! just got an email from NYU - Cinema Studies telling me that they are still deliberating (there's 17 departments in the Humanities apparently) and we should get some answers in the next 3 weeks! hope it helped!
sweatingbullets Posted March 4, 2009 Posted March 4, 2009 Still waiting from NYU-Madrid Masters program. I applied on October 8th because I knew this was the program I wanted to go to, but my recs weren't in until January 3rd. I feel like I have been waiting for 6 months, although my application has only been complete for 2. I got an email February 3rd from a faculty member which was an "unofficial notice" that that my application was complete and was currently under review, and that I should receive a decision "in the next few weeks." Is it a good sign that they didn't request an oral interview??? (they say they do this if they have any doubts about your Spanish ability). Every time my phone rings with an unknown number, or I get a new email, my heart skips a beat.
Still Waiting... Posted March 4, 2009 Posted March 4, 2009 I too am among those still waiting on NYU (for Cinema Studies). Lorelei17- Was the e-mail you received a mass e-mail or was it in response to something you'd sent them?
portraitinflesh Posted March 5, 2009 Posted March 5, 2009 I too am among those still waiting on NYU (for Cinema Studies). Lorelei17- Was the e-mail you received a mass e-mail or was it in response to something you'd sent them? Im also waiting for NYU in Cinema Studies, but I don't feel very optimistic.
Lorelei17 Posted March 5, 2009 Author Posted March 5, 2009 Hey! I sent an email asking for my status so it was a personal email. I know they interviewed ppl last week by phone so... not very optimistic either BUT last year I got rejected in mid February so maybe all of those who are still waiting like me are still in the game!
kwagner Posted March 5, 2009 Posted March 5, 2009 Still waiting!! Blah! I applied to the Media, Culture & Communication program. (MA) I am so over waiting!! One of my best friends is also still waiting for the Tisch Cinema Studies MA program as well.
