    Admitted (w/o Interview) Columbia College Chicago Film and Television BA - 2025

    This application process was a little unusual for me. I had initially intended on applying for CCC's BFA Program (having submitted the initial Common App application early in admissions season), however, by the time the January deadline rolled around, I had realized that I wasn't really drawn to...

    Columbia College Chicago vs Ohio University

    Hi all, I'm considering both these universities mostly because of the financial aid/scholarships they've offered. I'm interested in cinematography, and that's what I want to pursue after graduation. Both the programs look great. CCC focuses more on Directing but is in Chicago and has a better...

    Admitted but Not Attending (After Interview) Columbia College Chicago Directing MFA - Fall 2023

    Pretty well, they have been very kind answering all of my doubts. A bit bothered that, as an international student, they ask me to pay for an equivalency evaluation of my BA before knowing whether I am accepted or not into the program. I think it is fairly unfair. All other schools only ask it...

    Does anyone know about Columbia College Chicago's Directing MFA Program?

    Hi everyone! I got accepted into CCC's directing program several days ago. Does anyone know about this school? I've looked up some reviews from google map, but they seem to have different judgments. I got rejected by USC and haven't got interviews from Chapman, LMU, Columbia and NYU. I don't...
