    Buy a copy of The Writer's Compass by Guy Gallo. You'll find it very useful as well as brief.

    does academic background matter??

    I agree. School and major are of small use to a film school in determining admission, outside of showing you can work. Offhand I can't imagine a better combo for a writer than Phil. and Psych.

    AFI vs. USC

    I would make my decision based upon my life experience. AFI is for the older student who has some work experience and has a chosen path. USC is a longer course of study and is more general at first. USC is for the younger student.
