    LFS Screenwriting MA - Sept 2024 entry

    Hi! I'm applying for the MA in screenwriting at LFS next week and there doesn't seem to be a thread for this course yet so I thought I'd make one in advance of the application deadline!

    Admitted (After Interview) NYU Grad Film MFA 2024

    Process was good. I loved the interviewers. The department chair called me in the afternoon to let me know I had gotten in and then my letter and fin aid was available the following day

    Admitted (After Interview) Feirstein Brooklyn College MFA in Cinema Arts

    It's been slightly weird. I don't feel like the interviewer was very interested in me or my work. I also haven't heard from actual Feirstein people yet. I only got a generic Brooklyn College granulations email.

    Waitlisted (w/o Interview) USC SCA Writing for Screen and Television MFA

    I enjoyed the application process, especially the creative challenge scenes, but I wish there were an interview component for the screenwriting concentration.

    Admitted (Off Waitlist After Interview) Columbia University Writing for Film and TV MFA - Fall 2024

    Application was straightforward and I enjoyed writing for the prompt, although the page limit was quite short. Excited to learn more about this new writing concentration accelerated program.

    Admitted (After Interview) UCLA - Cinematography MFA 2024

    The application went well! It was interesting to apply to a Cinematography program without providing any visual supplements. It was all writing samples with the most narrative being an essay on Cinematography as Storytelling. The others were writing samples of personal/purpose statements.

    Denied (After Interview) Columbia - Directing/Screenwriting Film MFA

    The application process went well. Just a lot of drafting, writing and revising to make sure that all the components they ask for is done appropriately. The prompts were fun to write stories about and find unique ways to interpret the meaning of them!

    Waitlisted (After Interview) Columbia MFA Directing & Screenwriting - Fall 2024

    It went well. I enjoyed the process of working on several different creative writing supplements and tried to come up with some stories that weren't obvious with the given prompts. I had a short film that I already was working on before the application process that I was able to use in my...

    Northwestern Documentary Media MFA - 2024

    Has anyone else applied to NU? I was looking at last year's thread and it seems that they reach out for interviews around this time.

    Declined Admission (Off Waitlist After Interview) AFI Conservatory 2024 Directing

    It went well. I had a short film that I already was working on before the application process that I was able to use in my submission. I challenged myself when creating the short film on connection, and tried to come up with creative ways to add production value on the cheap. I tried to come up...

    Waitlisted (w/o Interview) Chapman - 2024 MFA Film Production (Directing Emphasis)

    I thought the application process was relatively straightforward, although they required a lot of materials so I would recommend starting early. The video essay was a little daunting at first but I was really happy with the final product. I would recommend going on YouTube and searching for...

    Admitted (w/o Interview) UT Austin Fall 2024 Undergrad

    Applying to film school is exhausting and a lot to manage with school, activities, classes, college applications, portals, and creative supplements. However, as you go through the process you learn more about yourself and feel like each application gets better. Yes, I wish I would have started...

    Denied (w/o Interview) UT Austin - Film and Media Production MFA - Fall 2024

    After completing the initial "ApplyTexas" application, which is a pre-requisite to applying to any Texas university, the UT application wasn't really too bad at all! They required three letters of recommendation (most other schools I applied to only needed two), a writing sample, a statement of...
