Hi guys,

I’m an international student (freshman) who’s currently studying at LSU and wants to transfer to NYU Tisch to study Film & Television. I’m almost done with my portfolio, but I have a little problem. My gpa of last semester was 1.75… It was low because I was really depressed at that tine (I had one F, two C’s and one W). My current gpa is good, but I’m unfortunately not able to get my transcript of my current semester since it will only be visible by the end of May. Which is a problem since the application deadline is April 1th. I decided to apply for the SAT test so that I would still be able to show NYU my potential. Unfortunately due to the Corona Virus, my SAT test got cancelled. I did call the admissions office and explained the situation. They said that I should still apply and that they will keep in mind that the SAT tests are getting cancelled. I have two academic recommendation letters, I have worked as an intern several companies, I have a list of extra curricular activities. So I was wondering do you guys think I will get a chance? Because my current gpa is 3.5

I also showed my portfolio to the teachers of the Film & Theater department of my school and they were all very positive about it.

Hi larosa,

I’m also applying to Undergraduate film & TV. Do you know when they will release the decision? A lot of NYU applicants have received their decision, but I didn’t hear too much from Tisch applicants. Do you have any idea?

3

Yeah same here with undergrad film. I haven’t really heard anything from what I’ve seen on this site from Tisch applicants.

4

Me too! it’s so annoying but from what the lady on the phone told me, Tisch applicants will receive their decisions this week and next week! so fingers crossed! :blush:

5

Hey, sorry I didn’t see your comment. From what the lady told me on the phone, we’ll be receiving our decisions this Friday or next week!

6

Has anyone heard back last Friday? I haven’t and was wondering because I haven’t heard much from Tisch at all

7

@Dudu123456 we’ll be hearing from them this Friday and next Friday! :blush:

@larosa2 Sweet! Good luck to you as well!

Here’s to hoping we get some decision releases tomorrow!

10

@larosa2 do you know if Tisch drama decisions will come out today? Also what time do you think the decisions will come out? Finally, who told you that the decision was coming today? I know I asked a lot of questions; I’m just anxious. Thanks!

11

Has anyone heard anything yet?

12

I just called the Undergraduate Admissions office, and the woman said, “we haven’t released transfer decisions today.” I’m bummed out

13

ughhhh, i’m so irritated! like why would they let us wait that long.

14

@larosa2 I’m hip!! When are we going to find out June? I have to register for classes at my current school now.

15

@kel5142 I honestly have no idea. Especially since Tisch students have always received their decisions in the first week of May. We’re currently in the second week of May so this is weird

16

Any changes to the portal? Nothing’s been goin’ on in mine.

17

nope. no changes at all pffff

18

Hi Larosa, do you know admitted transfer students of Film & TV need to take a mandatory summer session? But the pandemic really messes up everything. Will the admission rearrange the summer session? I am also afraid the pandemic will affect our admission decision. Just soooo panic!

19

Yes, I know that! but we’re probably going to have online classes. I honestly think that this pandemic might work in our favors because a lot of highschool students have denied their admission offers due to the fact that they didn’t receive any financial aid

Anyone receive any update on Albert? I got nothing.
