    NYU Tisch MFA Filmmaking 2012

    Hey guys, this is a group of NYU Directing MFA first years, sitting in the editing room right now. We were reminiscing about these days last year when we were all applying, and thought fondly about this forum, haha. We thought we'd reach out to everyone who just applied and send some...

    AFI 2011

    I just got the email too, I was accepted into the Directing program. I am extremely happy, it feels great to know that a school wants you, out of hundreds of people. Unfortunately I will be going to NYU. So hopefully this will make someone on the wait-list as happy as I am.

    NYU MFA FILM PRODUCTION/CP/Dramatic Writing Class 2011 (New York)

    Wenyi, ideally this is what a lot of people think, but it's not that easy. Remember that the deposit that you send to a university is a contract, which says you're agreeing to attend that school and also you're agreeing to pay for your tuition. If a student reneges on this contract by not...

    NYU MFA FILM PRODUCTION/CP/Dramatic Writing Class 2011 (New York)

    Munky the robot, I can't really give you a credible answer. First off, I'm not to familiar with the two writing programs and secondly, I don't know your whole situation. But off the top of my head, if I were in your place and I got off the wait-list at AFI, I would go to AFI. I say this simply...

    NYU MFA FILM PRODUCTION/CP/Dramatic Writing Class 2011 (New York)

    Hey Munky the robot, I think the bottom line is that the Dramatic Writing program at NYU is design to expose its students to both playwriting and screenwriting (or at least during your first year). So if you want to focus ONLY on screenwriting for all two years, this is not your place. Also in...

    TISCH 2011 hopefuls lets nail-bite together!

    To Felipetto, I received an email from Susan that told me call her. To ruthiemadeleine, I would advise you NOT to call her if you didn't get the email. Susan said that April 1st was the "notification day" and I think we will still get our letters around that time, but because they have already...

    2011 Acceptances

    Hello Everyone, I started a new folder for us to keep track of everyone's progress, regardless of our discipline. And before anyone tell me that their is already another folder devoted to this topic, don't bother. I feel that the other folder was created prematurely, and as a result no one had...

    USC Film Production for Fall 2011

    I called the admissions office at USC and they told me that I've been wait-listed for Fall 2011 and accepted for Spring 2012. So to all of you out there, you can still be accepted into the MFA Film & TV Production Program without an interview, or at least the spring semester. By the way, they...

    USC Film Production for Fall 2011

    On Thursday of last week I received an attachment via email that invited me to the USC "Admitted Graduate Student Day" Luncheon. I assumed that it meant I was accepted, but I haven't received an email or a letter to confirm this. I called the admission's office to confirm it, but they told me to...

    TISCH 2011 hopefuls lets nail-bite together!

    Sorry to keep you guys waiting, I didn't know that there were so many responses since Wednesday. This forum has really picked up in the last couple of days. I receive an email in the evening on Wednesday. I didn't see it until about 10pm. It told me to call Susan to schedule the interview. I...

    USC Film Production for Fall 2011

    Thanks Mirpanda, I think you definitely cleared up some of the issues I had. It seems, unlike most schools, USC interviews are very spur of the moment. They call applicants on the spot instead of talking with them in person. So far this is what I gathered, anyone please correct me if I'm wrong...

    USC Film Production for Fall 2011

    Does anyone know whether interviews are required for Fall admission into USC's MFA Production program? I called their Admission's Office yesterday, and I was told that the School of Cinematic Arts does conduct interviews and that they base their decisions solely on our creative materials. So I...
