It’s funny, @fcallicotte, I’m also a Hispanic from AZ who got the scholarship…
Does NYU release all their decisions on one day? I’ve heard April 1st at 5pm EST.
@FilmMaker1 I heard they release them in waves through out the day, typically with rejections being sent out first, in the early morning. Then, acceptances come out in the afternoon starting around 3ish EST.
This is getting soooooo nerve-wracking!!! I don’t get why someone would consider this to be a “safety” no matter how high their stats are, NYU tailors so well to the need of so many majors!
Does Stern offer these scholarships too?
Some of us got the FA change before Albert got reset. Does it still count? The ones who didn’t get the FA change by that time won’t be very concerned because of the reset but should we consider it to be as important as before?
im gonna cry if i don’t get in. people have been telling me this is a match school for me, but everyone is so amazing on here!!! lol goodluck to all, though!
Banking on poly!!!
Does that mean they are going to send out decisions soon or are they still going to be sent out in late March?!
Last year people found out on March 28th so I’m banking on the 27th this year
Hopefully since they’re finished they can let us know before April 1, but I have no idea how much work goes into preparing all the emails/sending them out.
Hi, everyone! I’m new to the site and also an NYU hopeful. I applied to Tisch and would like nothing more than to be accepted into their cinema studies program. I have a theory about when we’ll all find out about the admission decisions. I looked on the admission blog’s archives from March of last year. The post from March 24, 2014 states, ''Our admission process for the Class of 2018 has nearly concluded." It was then stated that decisions would be sent ahead of schedule, and they were sent on March 28. That being said, if they really have finished ahead of schedule again (and they probably have, because the notification date was originally stated to be April 1st last year and March 24 was early for them, and the expected notification date has not changed) then it’s a possibility that we may hear back by Thursday. Again, don’t get your hopes up because it’s just a theory, but I think it’s a logical conclusion because of the four day gap between the finalization of decisions and the sending of notifications last year.
@thefilmgeek94 Hopefully they’ll release them ASAP!
@thefilmgeek94 I’m also hoping to be accepted into their cinema studies program! I can’t wait to find out. Also, I think your theory makes sense, but Thursday might be a little early for them. I guess we will see!
@FilmMaker1 Yeah, I guess I can see it being a bit too early. March 28 was only a few days earlier than expected. But at the same time it would be nice if they had a heart and just sent it out early if it’s possible. Just curious: What did you right about for your portfolio essay (if I may ask)? I did The Exorcist and its unintentional impact on the horror genre, so I hope the topic was refreshing and works in my benefit.
I just wonder why they had a record of ~60000 applications this year yet ended up finishing reviewing them earlier…

How much scholarship should I expect???
These are the questions you should ask after you get your decisions, @SaaimKH. As for the theory mentioned, I would also agree it may come out Thursday, but at the latest the 28th, as opposed to April 1st. One question though: I’ve heard some things that if you get an emailed decision in the morning from NYU, it means that you got either waitlisted or rejected. And vice versa for if you got accepted or not. Can someone confirm or deny this?
@thefilmgeek94 For the Artistic Influences essay? Not certain which one you’re referring to.
