Official Class of 2022 Applicants Discussion Thread

That would be even better!

Based on last year’s thread, it should come out midnight this Sunday morning.

CMU ED was released Saturday night (12 AM Sunday).

As I said before, CMU always does a midnight release for ED and RD. ED was released on the midnight between Sat and Sun for the last 3 years. For RD, it’s the midnight of Sun (3/26/17) or Sat (3/26/16 and 3/28/15). So it could be the midnight of either Sat (3/24) or Sun (3/25). Good luck to everyone!

Hi! I applied RD to the interdisciplinary program (English major and Dramaturgy major). I had an interview a couple of weeks ago for my Dramaturgy application and then last weekend I got an email from the head of the Dramaturgy department (also my interviewer) saying that I was being recommended for the BFA Dramaturgy program and that my application was one of the strongest. I thought this was just likely letter or something, but then yesterday I got another email from the same person inviting me to reach out and talk to a CMU student who’s in the same program. It said she would like to welcome me to the Drama family. So now I’m really confused. Was I accepted to the school of drama??? Do I now just have to wait for college of arts and sciences???

@halfdust @MathDad2000 But last year applicants received an email in the 21st telling them that notification would be posted on the 25th-26th. No email has come out, implying that notifications will be later
so perhaps not until the weekend of the 3/31st-4/1

@westcoast123 I’d think that means you’re likely accepted to CFA but not yet to Dietrich. My DD is in a similar situation. We’re just waiting for the official word now and not counting on anything until we see it in writing.

Does anyone know what type of admitted student events CMU has or when they will be held?

@mmfrymire they have events throughout April.

Also, I just chatted with admissions and it turns out that info about decisions will be released at the beginning of next week which is super sad.

@westcoast123 & @odannyboySF same here, we received an email recommending my son for BFA Acting. still waiting to hear from admissions :-S I wish we knew already. Are they just as tough on stats for the fine arts? Anyone know?

@latinaMTmom If you look at CMU’s admission stats, they are broken out by school. Still pretty high for CFA. https://admission.enrollment.cmu.edu/pages/undergraduate-admission-statistics

@PhilipM Oh I didn’t know they got emails. I’m still hoping they’re released the 25th!

@Pianomonster20 I found them online. Overnight visit is 4/15-16. Thanks though.

@halfdust is that midnight eastern time?

@confused6789 Yep

I just called the admissions office again and they said that they are sending out packets on the 29th and then on midnight of the 31st (so Friday night basically) they will post the decisions on the portal.

odd that the admissions office answered their phones at 8:00pm.

R u kidding me! i cant wait another week!!

Just noticed that CM Admissions tweeted this yesterday (check “tweets and replies”):

“You’ll be receiving an email notification regarding the decision reveal date within the next week. Check your email for important decision related information.”

@alizarin lol i called them at 5:00, just didn’t post about it right away!
