    "Financially hobbled for life" The high price of some film programs

    This may be posted twice- I wasn’t logged in— but also if you get a scholarship or don’t, ask them to increase the amount. I did that and had success at two big schools. I still couldn’t afford it. They were unable to meet my mark (also know your mark BEFORE you ask because it’s soooo hard to...

    "Financially hobbled for life" The high price of some film programs

    Also, if you are offered a scholarship (or not offered anything) ask for them to raise it. I did that at two schools with success at both. It wasn’t enough of a raise in the scholarships to make it affordable for me, but it was certainly worth asking and I was very surprised it was a thing. You...

    Working full-time while also attending film school full-time? Is it doable?

    Yeah CSUN holds classes at night (7-10pm) so you are able to work full time still. You’ll be tired, but it’s def doable.

    Chances of being taken of waitlist CSUN?

    Hey, so idk the odds overall, but the year I went to CSUN, I know there were 2 people on here who ended up taking other spots. I think it happens. I don’t know that I’d count all the eggs (I have no idea percentages) but don’t count yourself completely out yet.

    Very short post from a 2nd year UCLA Screenwriting student's perspective but wait hold up it's not actually that short

    Oh wow!! Congratulations on them getting their shots!!! That definitely helps. Yeah the pandemic is really cramping my style! 😂 Glad you’re doing well. Hopefully post pandemic l, or outside socially distanced, we can do another FilmSchool.org meet up.

    AFI Producing 2019

    Yeah that was my thought. I know NYU and USC both don’t allow deferral. I don’t think UCLA does either, so I’d be surprised if AFI did. But you never know. :)

    What kind of projects do you like producing?

    The only things I've "Produced" are self created shorts, so short fiction. Mostly, I'd really just love to learn from you guys so that I can know more about the process as I go forward! :)

    @Septopus7 and @Pickled_6 does AFI allow deferral? Very few grad schools do, that I know of.

    How to Reject an Offer after accepting?

    I’d say be brief, be as honest as you can be- but only as honest as is relevant and necessary, be professional and be polite. If they’ve given you help with anything thank them again for that and let them know you’re sorry it didn’t work out. If they know why you’re not going there or going...
