    Screenwriting MFA 2023, UCLA vs USC, which one to choose?

    Both are amazing schools; congratulations on your acceptances! I don't think you can go wrong with either. Obviously USC is much more expensive than UCLA, if that's a factor. I'm most excited for UCLA because at its core, it's intensive writing. I'm going to spend two years writing with the...

    UCLA Screenwriting MFA 2023

    I get the feeling the whole process is a game of musical chairs, and they're just waiting to hear back from students who've been offered admission, so they know how many more spots they have to offer. I hope you hear back soon!

    UCLA Screenwriting MFA 2023

    Mine was with Phyllis Nagy (dept. head / adaptations professor) and Jill Goldsmith (TV writing professor).

    USC SCA Writing for Screen & TV MFA Fall 2023

    What’s the purpose of rolling acceptances for a couple of weeks? Do some people admitted let them know right away they won’t be attending, freeing up spots so they can continue to roll out? Is there a date admitted students must respond by?
