Please someone answer when The New School is coming out. They have sent no emails indicating when results come out. I don’t even know what portal to look at. If anyone has any information please comment below. Thanks lol
This would be super helpful! It’s almost April and they haven’t sent anything out really
After constant searching the only clues I have are that last year “It came out about a week after march 17” … the website says mid march. @IsaacBV
Still no sign omg
I submitted mine before the January 15th deadline and I haven’t heard a thing either. I saw a few people on Twitter today say they got accepted though so I’m super confused but I guess we’ll just keep waiting.
Do you know what the majors of the people accepted were. In a lot of cases theater schools send acceptances out before rejections… But if the people were accepted for a different major we still have a chance? This is so scary @sunny24
I called the admissions office and was told that the decisions for undergraduate BFA Drama would be sent via email on March 24th. I’ve been checking our New School student portal (https://newschool.askadmissions.net/Vip/Vip.aspx) and there is no update posted. I’ll call the admissions office again today to query why we haven’t heard anything.
Update on the New School. I called again-- today-- and was told that if you HADN’T received an email decision by yesterday that you needed to call an admission counselor. The admission counselors are so busy that the best they can do is call you back within 2 working days. I also emailed the head of admissions (Georgia Schmidt) and she emailed me right back to say that all decisions would be posted by April 1. So the New School is fairly disorganized and/or overwhelmed by applications. Not looking too good…
Well this is terrible news. Would you recommend calling an admissions counselor? Or emailing Georgia Schmidt? I’m not sure what to do at this point…is there even a chance of acceptance? @Betsysk8
I would do both! I mean, it never hurts to ask, right? The 800 number to admissions is 800-292-3040. Georgia Schmitt’s email is schmittg@newschool.edu. I know that this year was the first year the New School used to Common Application so they admit that they received something like 3-times as many applications than they usually. get. They may be overwhelmed by the number of responses they have to process. I am keeping my fingers crossed for some sort of positive outcome.
Thank you! Just called. They said Drama applicants should have heard yesterday… this worries me as most theater schools send rejections after and the acceptances first. The lady on the phone said they would call me in two days time. sigh @Betsysk8
@hopefullgal - Yeah-- I think good news travels fast. I don’t know why they just can’t send everything out at once. And the calling back after two days seems weird as well. Just tell us and get it over with.
I got my acceptance yesterday but I didn’t apply for Drama so it might be different timing. Hoping for the best for you!
Has anyone from Drama heard?
We heard! Check your admissions vip site. (We got in!)
Got in too @Betsysk8
@hopefullgal - yes!!! Thrilled for US! Is it your first choice? Now I have to do the numbers to see if I can afford it. Got a little bit of aid, but not enough to make this school economical. It will be a real sacrifice for my parents.
Yes it is my first choice and I am hopefully going ! @Betsysk8
Have you started to think about dorms? @hopefullgal
No I don’t know how any thing works. I don’t even know how to check my financial aid stuff. I would like to think about dorms haha @Betsysk8
