rllnyc Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 I just received a call saying I have been accepted & I'm receiving a scholarship!!!!!!!!! I've never been more excited....this has been my dream school since I was a teenager!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Anyone currently attending or waiting to hear back? Is this program pretty on par with Columbia's J school? Any insights would be great!
canonindie Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 Congrats!!! Which program did you apply to? I'm still waiting...
rllnyc Posted March 4, 2013 Author Posted March 4, 2013 Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!! :DMagazine writing! You?
hayahtnamas Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 Congrats! Do you mind if I ask about your profile? I'm waiting to hear back from NYU too. Your post made me race to check my phone and I almost lost it when I saw I had three missed calls - all of which were unrelated. Aghh @canonindie - I'm waiting to hear back from Studio 20 as well! Filling my time freaking out until then.
rllnyc Posted March 4, 2013 Author Posted March 4, 2013 That's frustrating! It must have just been the magazine writing that heard back today. My undergrad gpa was 3.68 (majored in communications), got average GRE scores, really strong recommendations.
journalism2013 Posted March 5, 2013 Posted March 5, 2013 I was accepted too, and with some scholarship $, but for Reporting New York at NYU. Still waiting to hear from a couple more schools though. I wish all the waiting would end!
kkhope Posted March 5, 2013 Posted March 5, 2013 Hi all, I got accepted to the Magazine Writing program too..Were you notified of a scholarship in the same email you received from Meryl gordon? I am international student so any insight into the program and job opportunities will be much appreciated. Thanks.

Yes.....first I received a phone call from Meryl, then a few hours later I received the email from her that also included scholarship information. I got an email from the GSAS this morning.
hayahtnamas Posted March 7, 2013 Posted March 7, 2013 I've been accepted into Studio 20 with a scholarship!
canonindie Posted March 7, 2013 Posted March 7, 2013 I've been accepted into Studio 20 with a scholarship! Congrats! Me too! Yay! Will you be going to NYU?
hayahtnamas Posted March 7, 2013 Posted March 7, 2013 Congrats! Me too! Yay! Will you be going to NYU? I'm just waiting to hear back from other schools, but studio 20 was my first choice. AHH! Congrats!
Redzjohn Posted March 7, 2013 Posted March 7, 2013 Congrats folks. Me also got into Studio 20 with grant.
rllnyc Posted March 7, 2013 Author Posted March 7, 2013 Ahh congrats to you all in Studio 20!!!!! So exciting!
hayahtnamas Posted March 7, 2013 Posted March 7, 2013 (edited) I'm just being paranoid with the whole "Arthur L. Carter Journalism Institute has recommended to the New York University Graduate School of Arts and Science that you be offered admission to our Studio 20 master's program" right? Am I in!?

You definitely are!!!!!!! That's what my first email said. Then came the official GSAS email the next morning. Don't worry!
melock Posted March 14, 2013 Posted March 14, 2013 I got in to the magazine program!!!! woohooo!! Who's with me??? I also got into university of maryland!
rllnyc Posted March 15, 2013 Author Posted March 15, 2013 I got in to the magazine program!!!! woohooo!! Who's with me??? I also got into university of maryland! I'm in that program too!! Do you know if you're accepting yet? Congrats by the way!
melock Posted March 15, 2013 Posted March 15, 2013 I'm in that program too!! Do you know if you're accepting yet? Congrats by the way! Most likely I will be but im just waiting to hear back from CUNY. Then I need to take a step back and compare the pros and cons of each. NYU is just so expensive..lol
canonindie Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 It doesn't seem like NYU is having an organized open house... is anyone visiting? Don't know if I can... but totally curious what the place is like.
seandrivescars Posted March 17, 2013 Posted March 17, 2013 Hey guys, just saw this thread! Was accepted for Journalism a while ago. However, I also just got into Syracuse. So it's essentially 'Cuse vs. NYU. NYU has a better name, but it's also quite expensive. At least I still have some time to decide :/. In the meantime, Magazine Writing anyone? seandrivescars 1
journalism2013 Posted March 17, 2013 Posted March 17, 2013 I might plan a visit on the same weekend that Columbia's having their open house. Even if they don't have a formal thing, we could still probably sit in on a class or shadow someone in the program.

I was definitely thinking that...except the response date for NYU is April 15th...which is before the Columbia/CUNY open house weekend 4/19-4/20...and way before 5/1...
