NYU Tisch Summer High School 2011

<p>Garlix,</p>

<p>Do you know anyone who has completed the Tisch Summer film program? Just want to make sure it is worth the investment.
Thanks

<p>Sorry, just seeing your post now. We visited Tisch in February and toured the facilities, and were very impressed. I got the impression from CC and from faculty there that getting into Tisch summer program helps your application to Tisch later. Also the student tour guide, who was a junior, I think, had done the summer film program, fell in love with Tisch, and applied early decision, along with many friends made in the program. She said it was an amazing experience, non-stop work, but totally immersive and energized. I sent in our deposit the other day so I hope it will be a great experience!! We did not apply for financial aid but this is a huge investment for us.</p>

<p>Just a note: my son also could have done the Emerson College filmmaking program (the non-credit one which is focused on film production). He decided that it would help his college applications (to NYU, Emerson, and others) more to have successfully completed the a selective college-credit program. Who knows if that is true? He does not have a straight A GPA so doing well in the program would presumably help show his passion, competency, and commitment to filmmaking.</p>

<p>Anyone heard from Stonestreet, Meisner, ETW? Anyone off the wait list?</p>

<p>A friend of mine was notified of her acceptance to the ETW program about a week ago.</p>

<p>Thank you ActingDude17, My D was waitlisted for Stonestreet and they said that the accepteds had until April 1st for their decisions. I was just wondering if they ever ended up accepting wait listed (I know it must vary from year to year and program to program), but just wanted some hope from someone who may have heard. Was your friend waitlisted in the beginning? Where did you choose to go to college or are you a junior as well?</p>
