Application 'DRAMATIC WRITING MFA FALL 2026 NYU TISCH'
It's gone well! I completely rewrote my pilot like three days before it was due, which probably wasn't the best decision, but I ended up being really happy with it. I had two really solid...- toucanna

Application 'AFI Screenwriting - 2026'
Application process was pretty chill. I was already applying to other MFA programs and was grateful AFI wanted three pages of personal statement instead of one or two because it was more...- bchemtrails13
