I had applied on the priority deadline - Nov 25th but still haven't heard back from the college.
Has anyone received any email/communication about next steps?
Hello. I have a question regarding personal statement.
Is it advisable to resubmit the old personal statement with revisions when reapplying to SCA Production program? This is the 2nd time applying to SCA, and if I’m not admitted this time I’m considering to keep the personal statement while...
Applying to film school this year?
I decided to create a general film school application thread for those of your applying in 2022 in addition to the individual film school application threads.
Reply here with the film programs you are applying to or have applied to and meet your fellow...
I can’t exactly tell what’s expected for the Media Sample for the USC MFA Film and TV application - do we have to make a brand new original video for the purpose of applying to USC, or can we use a video we’ve already made in the past?
I would prefer to submit a project I worked on two years...
I didn't see a thread for UCLA MFA directing/production for entry in next fall? so i took the initiative to create one :)
Who is applying? How's everyone's portfolio going? We have 40days left until deadline! Let's go everyone!
Hello, hopeful film school applicants. This site was my top go-to as I applied to film schools five years ago, and I know how anxiety-inducing the application process can be. I graduated this spring and still believe Columbia was the best choice for me. Please feel free to ask questions about...
I will be applying to lmu, chapman, usc and maybe a few others next year and i'd say my grades are my strongest part of the application (4.0 and 35 act). How much will these stats help me in the application process?
A lot of decisions rolling in today! And a ton of members online!
Congrats everyone!!!! To those that didn't get in don't give up and try and remember it's not personal and applying many times before getting in is quite normal.
Be sure to update your Applications in our database whether you...
First time applying. Submitted my application the day of the deadline. I also submitted a short film I did cinematography for, a film reel, and a 20-page screenplay.
I followed the advice on the forum and checked my vimeo stats to see whether have anyone viewed my materials. But since the interviews invitations are coming out Feb 10th, I'm a little panicked as no one has watched my short film yet.
Is it normal? They are just taking it slow? Or it means I...
Application:
I tried to show diversity in my pieces. Video submission was bright and hopeful and happy. Writing piece was dark, suspenseful, dramatic, and the essay was hardly about film at all, but my outside experiences.
Hi,
I have a question about the photography or videography portions of applications. Does a select group of photographs or video have to be done on a legit camera or can one apply with camera phone pictures/video (of course they'd be the best possible samples and not sporadic shots of dogs or...
Hi all,
A couple of schools I'm looking at (UCLA and CUNY City College) require a 3.0 GPA. Are these serious requirements for them? I don't see it at other schools.
Thanks
Hey guys!
I am finishing my application for the directing MFA program in CalArts and I am having some difficulties finding the option of waiving my right to view the letter or not. I am wondering if CalArts offered that option or not? If yes, does anyone have any clues where the option...
Hello !
I am currently applying to AFI Producing MFA. As a French applicant, I am not familiar with American application statements, so I just had a very basic question about AFI's Narrative Statement formatting.
Do you think it is expected to use a "Dear madam, dear Sir /.../ Yours...
