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

I have emailed USC about a status update. Will report back if I hear anything.

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 great to get an answer by tonight, even to let us know they need a few more days. It would be nice not to be in the dark.

I'm hoping USC will contact us by tomorrow. It makes sense giving that it will be Friday.

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.

Did y'all get the USC update?

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.

Ahhh ok that means I'm out of the running -- I did not get an interview. But just wish they would release me then and give me a confirmation

No I don't think so! The first decision in the past has been made to see the applicants they want to interview. There hasn't been a first decision yet, so we all have a chance still, so don't worry!

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. 

congrats that's amazing!

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.

USC is such a complete waste of time.

I emailed then for an update, and nothing. Bizarre isn't it? We have other deadlines to consider

I have a friend at USC in a different Master's program, and apparently, with the government aid cut, the school has rescinded offers for many of the incoming Master's and PhD programs. 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 just got word from USC -- they said if I don't hear anything back by the 15th to move forward with other offers 😅. I assume the same can be said for everyone else who doesn't hear back by the 15th.

I was thinking I'd probably accept UCR today if I didn't hear back from USC. Are you gonna wait until the 15th to decide on UCLA?

Yes, I'm going to accept UCLA next week! They've been so communicative, I've heard directly from their faculty and they've offered me a generous scholarship. USC has been crickets.

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.
