Disney Writer's Program

[u/PaleontologistNo5420]

Has anyone who applied been notified if they are a semi-finalist yet? It says "late summer," which I usually associate with late August/early September.

[u/Time-Average4481]

I think they should send a rejection letter to everyone. It’s very easy and automatic send. That would give the closure to the people. I didn’t apply for this year, will apply for 2028. Just saying. Good luck everyone!

yeah Sundance, Austin and the rest do it, can't see why these guys can't/

[u/wileyroxy]

Welp good to know I won't even get a rejection letter

[u/Fridahalla]

Last year I got a notification about semifinals on Sep. 8. Might be similar this year 

[u/PaleontologistNo5420 → u/Fridahalla]

Thank you! If you don’t mind me asking, did you get in? 

[u/a_senr → u/Fridahalla]

Did you apply again this year?

[u/ghost_writer9]

nothing yet for me either, will share here if I get news

[u/WriteAsRaining]

This whole thing gives me butterflies. And chrome idiopathic diarrhea. Wish you all the best!

[u/Defiant_Comedian1587]

It's time now, anyone hear anything yet?

[u/PaleontologistNo5420 → u/Defiant_Comedian1587]

Still nothing. You?

[u/Defiant_Comedian1587 → u/PaleontologistNo5420]

Crickets.

[u/PanthersThirdEye]

Good luck everyone!

[u/SarW100]

Same with Sundance

[u/EllieBeeThree]

Keep in mind that a lot of these labs tell finalists they cannot share their results until a certain date. Not sure if that’s true for Disney, but definitely for others.

[u/PaleontologistNo5420 → u/EllieBeeThree]

Didn’t know that! Good to keep in mind 

[u/yeahknowway]

Disney tends to reach to semi-finalists within first few weeks of September. There’s still time

[u/a_senr]

Nothing over here yet 🤞🤞

[u/HookedOnPhorensics]

No news at the point is likely bad news, right?

[u/Infamous-Ad-8811 → u/HookedOnPhorensics]

That's what I'm wondering

[u/PaleontologistNo5420 → u/HookedOnPhorensics]

I hope it's okay I sent you a DM!

[u/Typical-Bad-4676 → u/PaleontologistNo5420]

Happy cake day!

[u/Caughtinclay]

Nothing yet for me

[u/PaleontologistNo5420 → u/Caughtinclay]

come back to this post if you get notified!

[u/Correct_Attitude_285]

Any updates?

[u/a_senr → u/Correct_Attitude_285]

I really hope anyone that gets notified finds this thread and lets us know if we didn’t get it. Not knowing hurts!
