I also applied. They don't have interviews, but decisions should be mailed any day now as they said "early to mid March".

Good luck to all.

Congrats, Munky. If I may ask: did you receive an email yesterday saying your decision had been mailed "in the past few days"? I did, however it didn't come today...and now I'm going out of town for over a week so I won't be able to check my mailbox.

I did! And right after I mailed them about a change in my mailing address. So I had to call and find out if they sent it to the old one or the new one. Turned out they had sent it to the old one so I emailed Jennifer Healey and she had another one mailed. Today I was emailed by John Bernstein and he told me that I was accepted and that if I have any questions about the course I should get in touch with him.
It will be a while before I receive the package though cos they had to mail out a second one to the new address. It was nice of them to email cos they say they DONT email decisions ( which I think is weird.)

Oh you re going out of town also means u wont be around to celebrate ur AFi acceptance Wink Its 11th here where I am so 4 days left!!!!

Sure enough, I got off the plane and turned my phone back on to find a voice mail from one of the professors with the same message you got from John Bernstein (I'm in and I can contact him if I have any questions). I'm just hoping it wasn't some kind of sick joke. Smile

Also, I may be out of town but I still have access to my phone and email, and I believe AFI contacts you directly if you're accepted. Of course, if I don't hear anything come Tuesday it will be a long trip back knowing my rejection letter is likely waiting.

If only you were making the admissions decisions, I'd feel a lot more confident in my chances...

Probably should have mentioned this earlier, but I respectfully declined my acceptance and fellowship for screenwriting. So hopefully this helps someone off the wait list!

Just got a teaching fellowship at BU, so I turned down Columbia. Any other screenwriters accepting admission?
