ugh when is this going to end! jesus christ! T_T

anyways to help taking your mind off things, if you are in NYC area, go see 2008 Whitney Biennial...like usual the show overall is not that great, but Omer Fast's film "The Casting" is pretty freaking good, it's worth the trip just to see that piece

my God all of you are so lucky...I'm only applying for Fall 2009. Hopefully all will go well and I'll be accepted.

Good luck to all of you applying for this year...

When I logged into today I noticed the message on the online application system changed to:

The preliminary academic evaluation of your application is complete. Your file has been forwarded to your intended graduate program(s) for their review and admissions decision. You may check this website anytime for a status update.

If the graduate program requires additional information or renders an admission decision, you will be contacted.


Its good that at least something is happening. The wait continues...

When I applied as an undergrad I didn't get my acceptance letter until the middle of May. It was the same for a lot of the graduate students also at the time.

I got a rejection letter from them today and I'm in Tallahassee, FL. I could have sworn I didn't give them this address, but apparently I did.

So I guess the proverbial ball in the admissions department has begun rolling?

ya i just got rejection letter as well, so the saga continues!

heads up guys~ for me it's definitely a relief to receive some kind of news

oh also a big congrats to all those who got in

time to step away from the forums and work, gluck everyone!

I've heard nothing since my interview. Hmmm?

I got a letter from the Financial Aid office today, but nothing else.

I'm nervous...

Has anyone gotten into USC Directing yet?

I just got the rejection letter today as well. It actually was kind of liberating since I've been waiting so long to hear anything at all. Good luck to the rest of you still waiting to hear. And to those joining the rejection club, keep your head up. It's not nearly as bad as I thought it would be.

There's something to be said for the amount of time it takes to get a decision. All the excitement, anticipation and anxiety I felt at the beginning of this application process has long since vanished. I can hardly remember applying at this point and have discovered that a significant amount of apathy has set in based on my non-reaction to the rejections I've received. You can only bite your nails down so far.

I got that two days before I got waitlisted last year!

I think it's a great sign.

Congrats to those gaining acceptance, and consolation hugs to those rejected.

The wait is coming to an end at last.

What's the financial aid letter? Do first year graduates actually get offered money?

Ah, rejected. Oh well.

No, very few do, one or two in each incoming class of each discipline.

The FAO letter, at least the one I speak of, asked for my tax forms, and some supplemental documents in order to finish processing my original FAFSA submission.

As I said, I got that packet two days before I got waitlisted, so I see it as a good sign...but I could be wrong, maybe they send it to everyone.

Edited...Oh...Ahnser...I was wrong. I'm sorry!

No letter of any kind here yet, but I received an e-mail about financial aid, along with a USC ID. Good sign?

Is there anyone who he's still waiting to hear from USC for the graduate screenwriting program? I just want to get it over with, receive my rejection letter and move on.

What does this financial aid letter say exactly?

I received a financial aid letter in March requesting a supplemental form and they also gave me a usc id. If its the same one, I think all applicants get sent the same thing. I got mine in March because I thought the deadline for FAFSA was in March (when later I found out USC accepts it up to May)

The letter I'm talking about asked me to fax all of my tax info...copies of my returns, etc, to the FAO, by a certain deadline. I got that on Tuesday, my waitlist letter on Thursday. There was also a packet with the FAO letter, the general FAO materials they send at every school.

Sorry to spread false hope.
