<p>You should have definitely applied elsewhere, because now you are going to have less opportunity at other schools. I’m assuming that if you could afford NYU, you can afford another private school (but that is just an assumption on my part). I would look into these 2 for starters:
*DePaul University (Chicago) - which offers a BA in Playwriting according to CollegeBoard, and is in a major city. Application deadline is February 1st, so I would get on it.
*Butler (Indianapolis) - I know many people who are happy with their Butler education, and they offer a Creative Writing degree. App. deadline is February 1st.</p>
