    USC or AFI for Production/Directing?

    USC or AFI for Production/Directing?

    I'm for USC. The first year schedule at AFI plus what the gear provided by the conservatory have ruled it out for me. And tuition is so expensive!

    UT Austin MFA 2019

    USC Film & TV Production 2019

    The campus was amazing. Really beautiful campus. I have no idea if there are more acceptances going out. I know the waitlist still goes out, which is basically an acceptance for spring.

    Thank you! I visited campus last Thursday before I interviewed at Chapman. They told me only 4% if applicants were admitted this year so congrats to all who were! There will be a grad student orientation on April 5 for all admitted students!
