Thecatlady95 Posted April 2 Posted April 2 Waitlisted at NYU… is there any hope for me or should I start working on my applications for next year? I’m so sad because I wanted to get in somewhere this year and the idea of having to wait until fall 2026 (and then it’s no guarantee that I’ll even get in anywhere then either) is giving me hives
atreus85 Posted April 2 Posted April 2 I have emailed USC about a status update. Will report back if I hear anything. Gummyeyes42 1

tomjoad Posted April 2 Posted April 2 It's insane that USC made a big stink about April 01 specifically and let the day go by in complete radio silence

It would be nice not to be in the dark. tomjoad 1

Expand Just got an email from them asking for more time with no firm deadline of when we will hear back. I'm going to email them because I also got accepted into UCLA and they're asking for an answer by the 15th.
atreus85 Posted April 3 Posted April 3 (edited) Did y'all get the USC update? Edited April 3 by atreus85
ArachnidGreedy75 Posted April 3 Posted April 3 On 4/3/2025 at 8:58 PM, atreus85 said: Did y'all get the USC update? Expand Yeah, it's pretty vague. I don't know what to make of it. I wish it were more specific so everyone could know. I'm hopeful that it'll be next week at the latest. However, I believe interviews are a part of the process, which might delay offers even further into April.

But just wish they would release me then and give me a confirmation

There hasn't been a first decision yet, so we all have a chance still, so don't worry!
Mday Posted April 4 Posted April 4 Just got into Carnegie Mellon! I was never officially waitlisted, but given the timing, I'm assuming I was on their list and they just got to my spot. Monae, ms.peanut, atreus85 and 1 other 4

Toots23 Posted April 7 Posted April 7 Got a rejection from Hunter! Christine sent a very nice email. I am relieved y'all, I am done (no more refreshing this wonderful forum). Good luck to everyone with their creative endeavors! The most important thing is to keep making art. toasterstrudel and ms.peanut 2

I'm unsure if it directly impacted this decision, as the aid was for research and tailored toward STEM, but it could play a part. And like they said, they had a lot of applicants. Maybe a mix of the two.

I assume the same can be said for everyone else who doesn't hear back by the 15th.

Are you gonna wait until the 15th to decide on UCLA?

They've been so communicative, I've heard directly from their faculty and they've offered me a generous scholarship. USC has been crickets. atreus85 1
Monae Posted Friday at 09:28 PM Posted Friday at 09:28 PM (edited) Welp, there goes juilliard. Only waiting on usc, but i’m pretty sure i’m sticking with carnegie mellon. CMU gave me a great scholarship after i told them my financial situation, so i’m happy to attend a program without taking out more loans. Edited Friday at 09:34 PM by Monae atreus85 and ms.peanut 2
