How to use the Film School Application Database & Tracker
Thanks to our many members, the FilmSchool.org Application Database and Tracker consists of over 4,000 applications that date back to 2015, making it one of the most advantageous tools on the website. Its basic function is to track film schools’ rates of acceptance, minimum GPAs, accepted test scores, in addition to each program's many notification and decision dates.- Category: FilmSchool.org Guides

First time applicant. I graduated undergrad in June 2022 and applied for Fall 2024 entry. I'm a little disappointed that I was rejected from the program, but I didn't receive an interview so I wasn't surprised. I'm still proud of myself for applying!
