    Admitted but Not Attending (After Interview) AFI Screenwriting Fall 2023

    I actually find the GradCas system a bit complicated and it's hard to do a final check of everything but other than that everything was relatively easy. I like the scene prompts AFI give as they are so broad which is nice.

    Waitlisted (After Interview) NYU MFA Dramatic Writing Fall 2023

    The only school that didn't ask for extra creative materials but did ask for a full length pilot. They had the option of submitting an additional 30-minute pilot (to total 60 pages all together) which I did do this year, I didn't do this the first time I applied in 2020 and regretted it haha.

    Attending (Admitted w/o Interview) USC MFA Writing for Screen and TV - Fall 2023

    Denied (After Interview) NFTS MA Screenwriting Spring 2023

    Found the questions pretty standard and actually enjoyed doing the analysis of my own script. Found some of the instructions a bit vague and had to email for clarity but responses were really speedy which was great.

    Admitted but Not Attending (After Interview) Raindance MA Screenwriting

    A bit confusing and not very organised. Their emails were lost in my junk inbox and I kept getting different messages from different people. Also, I had asked to do the course online as I am working abroad in China but they have pushed the start date 3 times (September 2021, January 2022 and now...

    Admitted but Not Attending (After Interview) AFI MFA Screenwriting Fall 2021

    This was the application I did immediately after NYU and so I do feel that I didn't give it as much attention but the actual process itself was easy enough.

    Denied (w/o Interview) USC MFA Screenwriting Fall 2021

    This is my first year applying and so I have zero expectations. Found the autobiographical character sketch the hardest thing to write and it's still haunting me now haha!
