I too have received my polite rejection for the art internship…sigh. Better luck next time, I suppose.
On the bright side, I have made friends with the lady from my church who works at Pixar as a story artist. She was hired after the story internship, which she got after 3 tries. Which tells me, don’t lose hope! I will be chatting with her again sometime in the near future so if anyone has any questions they want me to ask, I could try to do so
Hey @monedula! I know for certain that they have 6 guaranteed available spots open this year, POOOOSSIBLY 8. At this point, I know there are 2-4 spots still open and this year, I’ve heard the 2,000+ people applied for animation alone… but disclaimer: One source said 2,000+ applicants, another said 1,200+ applicants. Whatever the case, still 1,000+ for animation.
Got my rejection mail for my art internship today…
but funny thing was 10 mins before that mail i got a mail to confirm date and time for my on site interview…and then i got the rejection letter apologizing for the previous email
Got my rejection letter for Art this morning unfortunately. But I will continue to work harder to make my dream a reality. This rejection will only motivate me more.

I haven’t heard anything from those two internships production and PU. I’ve checked my spam folders as well and nothing. LOL I finally made an account I’ve been watching your guys comment since day one. You guys seem like nice and funny people. Truly wish you guys the best!
