Telluride Association Summer Programs (TASP) 2016

It seems that this year the interviewers actually talked about the book list :slight_smile:
I really appreciated how personal my interview was, all the intellectual questions they asked me was tailored towards my personal experiences and opinions (which were difficult nonetheless). This wait is so grueling!

Wow, they’re a lot more responses here than the thread I am on . Currently, I am applying for TASS (the sophomore program) and I just had my interview a few days ago. Is anyone here a previous TASSer, but if not, may you be willing to share some of your knowledge on what they would have looked for in the interview. I know I already had mine, but I’m just curious :slight_smile:

@dannydalt64 same question – is tass easier to get in/are there usually any asians there? because orm lol

For those of you who have been crawling out of your skin waiting for the final verdict, TASP decisions should be released next Tuesday, April 26. For the past five years, they’ve always come out on the last Tuesday of April. Good luck everyone!

@amm310 Telluride said we would have to wait a little longer. We won’t find out about decisions until May 3rd. TASS finalists are just as anxious as you guys!!!

@Hamlon Is that for just TASS or for TASP as well? Do you know?

@amm310 No idea. I would ask @Intelligent08.

I think it’s both because they usually sent it out at the same time. @amm310

Did anyone get the acceptance email?

Not yet. On the TASS forum, they’re saying decisions will come out March 2nd or 3rd. Don’t know if that applies to TASP.

Thanks ChasingMerit
I am thinking about just calling the office tomorrow

did you call them? what did they say?

They did not send it yet. Still finalizing it

Did they mention when they will send the decision?@injch67

They just said next two weeks

This wait is physically hurting me. Is this the latest TASP has ever sent their acceptances?

Yeah same @nullisecunda. So who are all the folks that made it into the second stage of the application process? I’m hoping I hear by May 3rd; I’m like the second person from my school who’s ever made it past the first round of the TASP application process and the entire school is drawing their breath.

@IneffableMaestro If they don’t come out tomorrow, I might have a nervous breakdown. I’m the first person from my school to ever make it to the second round, so I’m in a similar situation where it isn’t just me waiting to figure out, but the rest of my school as well.

For Tass they just sent the acceptances because I got one!

Ahhh I just got into TASP Cornell 1 (the poetry one)! :open_mouth: …That was literally the last thing I expected to see when I went home today. I thought they’d come out on a Tuesay
