I know it may be a little early in the game, but has anyone else started preparing their application? This means visiting the school, talking to CBS ambassadors, drafting the essay, etc. And good luck everyone!

1month from submission to admission! This is by far the fastest turn around I've seen, way to go!! congrats novian.

Congrats Novian!!! Time to start a facebook group :0)

Thanks! From the looks of it, the school already has a group set up for it that's run by somebody internal (but I could be wrong). Very excited to begin my graduate education...now totally bummed I have to wait almost a year, but still VERY nice to have this wrapped up. I wanted to be set before Christmas, turns out I'm set before October! Again, thanks to all the contributors here who have helped me and given me new insights. This forum has been tremendously helpful, and I hope to contribute more in the coming months.

just submitted my app...keeping my finger Xed.

I'm planning to visit New York City on October 12-13. I was hoping to visit both CBS and NYU. I was curious to know if anyone had participated in the "Host Program" offered by CBS? If so, how did you like spending time with a student 1-1? Should I just visit a class on my own? I'm also looking into the student chat and information session that evening.... Any suggestions? Thanks!

Good luck! And best of luck to everyone else this week who is waiting.

Well, my app is in, the rest is up to the CBS gods. I will now proceed to tape my fingers into a permanently crossed position and start waiting...

triple5soul, I visited through the host program. My student host was very helpful. I sat in on a couple of classes with her and she even introduced me to the professors. So I would highly recommend the host program. Also, take advantage of the info session and student chats. The more you research, the better your essays will be. And it doesn't hurt to show your committment to the school.
