    Denied (w/o Interview) Boston University - MFA in Screenwriting - Fall 2023

    First time applying. What most made this application stand out was the video interview via Kira Talent. After being posed a question, you have 45 seconds to consider an answer and then will be filmed for 90 seconds to answer. I found it freeing to be able to answer by myself with no one watching...

    Review by 'GimmeCroissants' on item 'UCLA - Professional Programs'

    Having done the online version of the program, I appreciated how available the instructors made themselves and that the scheduling of the program could be structured around my availability. The online program brought students from all over the world into the program and people from all sorts of...

    Comment by 'GimmeCroissants' in Application 'Northwestern - MFA Writing for Screen and Stage - Fall 2023'

    Oooh. Gosh, I'll be honest, I can't remember. I think it was more like I considered that since it's there and I have something to say, then it's recommended lol Which aligned with what I found on online pages not specific to Northwestern, but that spoke generally that if a school has an optional...

    Denied (w/o Interview) Northwestern - MFA Writing for Screen and Stage - Fall 2023

    First time applying. Be sure to start the application early, since they don't outrightly advertise the optional diversity statement and post-graduation plans statement (if you have something to say for them).

    Attending (Admitted After Interview) DePaul University - Screenwriting MFA - Comedy Concentration - Fall 2023

    First time applying. If you attend any of DePaul's Jarvis College of Computing and Digital Media information sessions, they waive their application fee. Their fee is the cheapest of any school I've applied to, but I'll take what I can get. The information session and faculty lunch were very...

    Comment by 'GimmeCroissants' in Application 'UT-Austin - Screenwriting MFA - Fall 2023'

    I didn't. I would've liked to, but didn't have time to polish another sample. I submitted a comedy feature and had considered submitting one of my drama features if I were to submit another sample.

    Thanks!! 😄 Do love me some croissants! Ooooh! Definitely will review it! We just finished our first quarter, and definitely would recommend so far. I'll keep the review in mind and will post one probably after this next quarter after I've experienced more.

    Denied (w/o Interview) UT-Austin - Michener - Screenwriting MFA - Fall 2023

    First time applying. Compared to other schools, this application is incredibly basic. It's a relief, but you better make the best use of that statement of purpose, because that's all you get to introduce yourself besides your feature. Eeee!

    Denied (w/o Interview) Chapman - Screenwriting MFA - Fall 2023

    First time applying. Generic enough, in some ways, that I was able to use application materials I used for other schools. Yay! How considerate of them.

    Denied (w/o Interview) AFI - Screenwriting - MFA Fall 2023

    First time applying. I enjoyed answering the writing prompt. Gave me ideas for expanding the scene's story. I also appreciated they allowed 3 pages for the narrative statement. It gave plenty of room to expound more than other applications.
