Agez Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 Hey y'all! Got into Northwestern yesterday from a call from David T. Got half funding so definitely can't afford it, but it was very reassuring. If anyone is on DRAFT, Jess made a great post about fighting for funding. Don't let the thrill of getting accepted stop you from fighting for what you deserve. tradagram, PlayWitch, secretavatar and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But congrats. And at least try to fight for some more funding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did she make you submit anything else? Yes and yes -- I had a phone chat with a current student today, and Kate Snodgrass asked me to send in another writing sample.

shortymcshortz Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 I was waitlisted at Northwestern and rejected from Brown University today. This process has been unbelievably hard and trying especially for my anxiety and the little patience—I already have. I am happy to have this forum and see the positivity on here. It’s really helped me know there are others out there who are going through this with you. PlayWitch, sns1106, tradagram and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nerv Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 @shortymcshortz this will make a very good intro to your Tony speech!! Gotta pepper in the humble beginnings. @Dro. and @SeltzerBot...I talked to current students and Kate at BU last week, but she did not ask me for another writing sample...do we think this is a very good sign or very bad sign? Time will tell I guess. SeltzerBot 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I know the two schools where I've had interviews are both coming back from spring break late, so..... strong possibility we all might have to wait a little longer.

shortymcshortz Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 (edited) I just received a phone call from David Henry Hwang about my acceptance to Columbia University which makes all the rejection worthwhile. I have decided to accept the offer when my official acceptance package comes. I am excited about this opportunity. I wish you all still going through the process or waiting to hear back good luck. And to keep your head high because I know the waiting and rejection sucks. I have received on a day to day basis as an actor and in my current full time job.

littlered11 Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 Congrats to everyone who received good news this week! I took a break from this forum because this process was starting to get to me, but after a very kind rejection email from Hunter telling me I'd been a semi-finalist and a hopeful-sounding waitlist email from BU, I'm at least feeling more confident. tradagram, PlayWitch and SeltzerBot 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awp Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 Hey everyone, Long time lurker here, dipping my toe in for the first time to write. Wanted to first say what a salve this forum has been against the anxiety of this whole process. I haven't really joined the conversation before because I applied primarily to UK universities and only NYU and Yale in the States. Just found out I've been accepted into NYU. I'm beyond elated. Just breathing a huge sigh of relief. Got an email with a notification to check the portal. I've been given some financial aid but the whole thing is so confusing to figure out that I'd appreciate if anyone who could give me some help on that.
