    Admitted (w/o Interview) Emerson College Film and Media Arts MFA

    straightforward! I submitted my materials and then received the update from the notification email. I was very happy that I didn't need to have the interview.

    Admitted (w/o Interview) Emerson BFA Film production

    I applied early action and was deferred, and then I ultimately was admitted. I suspect I'm going to end up going here, but I need to think about it more. Financial aid offer wasn't great.
