Hi everyone! I haven’t seen a thread for the TISCH waitlist so I figured I would start one. If anyone has any information on how the waitlist process works, please post! And if you want to put your scores/stats and your preferred studio(s), please do!
Patiently waiting and checking this board daily.
I relate on a spiritual level
Praying, waiting, hoping for the best for my D who is on waitlist
I read online that Tisch waitlist moves earlier than others but I don’t know ?♀️
A friend of mine last year was admitted on April 20th from the waitlist for TISCH, so it could be moving soon. A good amount of theatre kids accept other schools just because theatre schools are so selective, and they could get a similar value of education for much cheaper.
I read on another thread that Tisch is no longer assigning studios before the May1st commit deadline, because they have typically lost students who are not happy with their studio assignment. Not sure how that will impact the waitlist. DD’s college counselor called on her behalf and was told they would not move to admit waitlisted students until after May 1 this year. DD also waitlisted at BU and Emerson.
Good luck for your D for all 3 waitlists
Talked to someone at the admissions office at NYU today, it will probably be after a week or around mid May when we will start to see movement on the waitlist, according to them
Did anyone else get an email from NYU about the waitlist? It says to fill out another form, but there’s no link on the portal to a form. Anyone figure this out?
My daughter received the same email. We’re assuming they are working on the site and were just going to check back tomorrow to see if the form is there.
Don’t think anyone’s status portal has changed with the new form. I’ve checked multiple forums and everyone is confused as well. Give it some time and everything will be ok. Good luck to everyone! This part of our journey is almost over and if it doesn’t work out, there are always multiple paths to what you deem as success.
To those who have not checked, the new form has been posted on my portal so I would say to check your as well.
Do y’all think they will tell us if they plan on admitting WL people to Tisch?
@stressedactor - they will send out emailed notice when the class is full but it’s an iterative process so it takes a while from first waitlist notifications to final notice. Here’s the thread from last year - by mid-May they sent a status update to the folks still waiting and by the end of June the notice came that the waitlist admissions were done. I would expect some initial waitlist movement in the next week to 10 days.

Does the day in which you submit your waitlist reply form matter? NYU is a top choice for me, but I didn’t submit the form until May 1st, the day it was due, because you know, life happens. I just really hope that doesn’t mess up my chances. Waitlisted for NYU Tisch Drama. Anyone know when those decisions come out? Can’t really wait until August 1st to be able to transition all the way to NY.
Just read on another NYU waitlist thread that two kids were taken off Tisch waitlist yesterday

Good luck everyone
Prayers continue
Has anyone heard anything? Or has anyone’s friends heard anything from Tisch drama?
@sel18 D has multiple friends on the Drama W/L and none have heard anything yet. Best of luck!
@yellahamma I have a bunch of friends on the WL too. None of us have heard as well. Just wanted to make sure the same was true for everyone. Best of luck to you too!!!
My D and her friend also on Drama WL. Have not heard anything yet this week.
