I don't think I'm getting an acceptance, but would love to know either way. Should I email? I got waitlisted. Apparently they gave their candidates a deadline of April 1 to get back to them. Maybe they'll send out more definitive emails after April 1?

Obviously not the best possible outcome, but still a huge accomplishment, and if you haven't been rejected, that means that you still have a shot! They're probably waiting on people to accept/decline their offers. princesadurazno 1

atreus85 Posted March 27 Posted March 27 (edited) None unfortunately. The only reason why I'm not going insane right along with you is because at least I know we're getting correspondence by Tuesday at the latest. Doesn't make the wait or the wondering about it any easier though. I do think they got back from Spring break this week. So maybe this one is for shoring up final thoughts.

ddmandy Posted March 27 Posted March 27 Hi if anyone got an offer from Yale, do you mind post on the Results page? I’ve been waiting since my finalist interview on Sunday and they said “they’re quick with decisions”. I know being a finalist is a huge accomplishment and I understand everyone is struggling, nevertheless I still spent the last hour anxiously cry.

I was just dealing with the fact that I need to apply again and I can get through it. Best luck to you!
Monae Posted March 28 Posted March 28 It's crazy that UCSD sent a rejection letter at 3 AM EST. ms.peanut 1

atreus85 Posted March 28 Posted March 28 Ngl was way too overjoyed to be receiving any update from any of the schools I applied to lol. Though I agree, the middle of the night is wild. ms.peanut 1
sbristow Posted March 28 Posted March 28 I also got rejected from UCSD! Now I'm at three rejections, one acceptance (Boston University for Screenwriting), and waiting on Hunter, Carnegie Mellon, and NYU (all probably no's since I haven't interviewed).

Out of curiosity, what made you apply to BU for screenwriting when you applied to playwriting for all the other programs?

Thanks for asking! I am interested in both playwriting and screenwriting, and this application cycle I primarily focused on programs where I could study both. I applied to BU for screenwriting because I liked the location and the potential scholarships available seemed better than in most film schools. (Unfortunately I didn't get much in the way of funding so I will likely either turn down the offer or try to defer). atreus85 1
Thecatlady95 Posted April 1 Posted April 1 Anyone hear from NYU yet? I heard we would hear back this week and I’m biting my nails over here
atreus85 Posted April 1 Posted April 1 Today is the day that USC said it would get back at the latest which means I'm in a state of extra vigilance.
