So when exactly are we getting our studio assignments?

I agree that asking kids to “hold the weekend” and then supplying a 2 hour welcome is disappointing! Other schools (larger than NYU) offer a full day or two, and allow students to sit in on classes, providing tours, parking info, etc. How is my S supposed to learn enough about a place where he might spend four years - and then be able to compare it to his other choices? When can we view the facilities, for example? If all the NY area accepted Tisch students will be there this Saturday, I am very concerned that we will not get an adequate picture of the school.

Other schools have provided “chats” and yes, phone calls for those with questions.

Does anyone know if Tisch will at least provide break-out sessions for the various studios? Are professors on hand to talk about classes? Current students? It’s all a bit of a mystery…
