Hey guys I just got an email with my application Id and a link to track my application. Did anyone get the same email?

SilverLenz

I got mine, too!

Looks like they received all my materials, so now it's just a long, slow wait. Awesome.

Hi Guys! I am new here!
I applied last year to Columbia and AFI and got accepted (At Columbia after being waitlisted) but just could not make it because of the money.
I am from Spain and this year I am reapplying to the MFA in Film. I got my ID last week, but just don't know when are they going to say something about the interviews. Does anybody know?

it's great to talk to you guys!
good luck!

I received a tracking number last week. They responded almost immediately after I sent them an email. Following my package, I found everything to be in order -they had received everything.

Kretze,

What is your background/Stats? Is this your first time applying to film school? How do you feel about your Columbia application? Also, what track did you apply for? I applied for the MFA in Creative Producing. I was happy to find out that they received all my materials.

Hey Silverlenz!
Now I am still living in Spain working as a screenwriter and enhancing my experience as a director (I just completed the editing of a music video for Universal Spain). I applied last year to Columbia and AFI and got accepted (At Columbia after being waitlisted) but just could not make it because of the money. Now I have a scholarship and I am applying to other programs, but Columbia is one of my favourites (MFA in Film Screenwrting/Directing).

Yeah, they recieved all my materials also, and now I am focusing on new projects here in Spain (short films and music videos mostly) while I wait for the answers, which is always a very anxious process...

It's nice to share this stuff with you guys!

good luck to you all!

Hi guys, I'm also applying to Columbia 2010 Fall, trying screenwriting/directing.And I'm from China~I've got my application ID some ten days ago, now just in the long and anxious waiting...It seems that the interview notice will arrive as early as late Feb.because the status site says that all the received materials will be evaluated as they are after Jan.31...

Hi, Cathy, I'm also from China. So glad to see u here! Would you mind to share some general background information with me, and besides columbia, which other schools did you apply? If you don't like to share in public, just send a private message to me, if you'd like, maybe we could chat on MSN

Cathy,

Where did you see that? I must have missed that. Could you forward me the link? I can't wait to late feb/early march. How are you holding up?

Submission fee's waived for today and tomorrow. GET YOUR FILMS IN NOW!

Hi Silverlenz，

That note is just above the "required materials" box on your status site, and it says "after Jan 30, 2001", which I assume there's a mistake of the year. The date is concerning about film, writing and theatre. I remembered some posts here saying that last year they had the interview around late Feb.

Hey Columbia applicants,

While I'm sure timing varies from year to year and person to person, last year I was first contacted about an interview in late February and was actually interviewed in late March. So sadly, there's still some nail-biting to go!

Hang in there!

Thanks for the info Suzako.
