    Chapman MFA Screenwriting Applicants 2021

    I will say Angelah and you applied to other programs than screenwriting. Producing and directing, respectively. So.... guys/gals... let’s not sweat it too much. Of course, I am saying this checking it every few minutes in a bar. Haha!

    Chapman MFA Screenwriting Applicants 2021

    No idea. I just see my submission fee on my cellphone right now. I saw my materials too earlier today from my laptop. I didn’t log into the portals until today since I submitted. Are they sometimes different in terms of device used?

    USC MFA Writing for Screen & Television (Screenwriting) 2021

    Thanks. I sent you mine. Do you mind sending me the stories you used, too? I am trying to also see if people who were accepted wrote full stories or scenes. It will make me better attune my application in the future. PS. I am still kind of at a loss, I admit, that USC states that you can...

    USC MFA Writing for Screen & Television (Screenwriting) 2021

    Fair enough. Perhaps both were unorthodox. I figured most people would write the character sketch as a short story. Which is common even in medical programs. But my storytelling knack would hopefully be shown by the other creative pieces. I chose more of a letter format, as I felt it was the...

    USC MFA Writing for Screen & Television (Screenwriting) 2021

    Screw it.... I will just post my rejection materials here. I am on my cellphone now and cannot upload the rest of the materials until I get home.... but.... This is the 10-page sample. It’s obviously part of a full, 86-page screenplay. As this is.... And, yes, my first draft/vomit draft did...

    USC MFA Writing for Screen & Television (Screenwriting) 2021

    Probably! I got an obvious form letter. Edit: Whoops... I actually got that too in the first paragraph. I skimmed the first time I read it. But.... ya... it is an obvious form letter, though. At least for me.

    USC MFA Writing for Screen & Television (Screenwriting) 2021

    Thanks Thanks for the well wishes! Ya.. you are right... that was more me too picking apart my pieces. So much that I am like 'did this one minor word repetition between paragraphs on page 5 do it?' Haha! No idea what went wrong. Even if I would love to know. But like I said further up this...

    USC MFA Writing for Screen & Television (Screenwriting) 2021

    Well.... I got my rejection letter. The good news, however, after applying twice in four years... I think I realized now why I got these rejections. I can't swear to it... but in short after looking on the website, I now realize that I CLEARLY can't read directions. The samples I submitted...

    USC MFA Writing for Screen & Television (Screenwriting) 2021

    To be honest, I have not been accepted yet, either. This would be for a second time in about 4 years. But, I wouldn’t worry about it too much. A lot of the submissions process not only is a crapshoot, but also (as in all submissions) simply comes down to taste. I have been writing for twenty...

    NYU Dramatic Writing MFA Fall 2018 (Acceptance, Rejection, Etc.)

    I submitted a full-length, 78-page screenplay. I wrote it over the 3 summer months with extremely little input from anyone but myself (as in someone editing it for me or giving me a critique,) since I am not in school currently. Although I have written exactly eight (8) 20-page-or-less (at most...

    Review of University of Miami MFA in Motion Picture

    @Operator I think it might be called something else. I have no idea. I don't know about any of the other money sources until I sign with them. I know they offer things, though.
