Not a con, but don’t go into this program thinking you’ll learn practical filmmaking skills
Curriculum is not especially rigorous
My experience with ASU started in their Biochemistry and Biomedical Engineering program. Transitioned into Film and Media Studies after facing severe anxiety about my future in laboratory settings (sacrificed too many mice).
The Film and Media Studies program covers a ton of ground conceptually: histories, practices, laws, and politics. Additionally, the program includes a decent amount of time spent on learning and applying critical theories to films and film genres.

ewheeler0906 is undecided about recommending this film school
My understanding is that the BA is more theoretical, which may explain the lack of hands-on experience. Did you look into the BFA or have a chance to do projects at the MIX center? I know these are relatively new, but I was extremely impressed by the MIX center and it seemed very hands-on.
