    Fall 2023 Brooklyn College Feirstein Acceptance - Now What?

    I just got into BC Feirstein (for Screenwriting) & have noticed a few others on here have as well. Because it's such a young program, I thought it could be good to pool any info we've gathered to help us with our decisions. I'm talking to someone I know who is a recent alum later this week but...

    I got in! I'd love to hear people's thoughts on the program. It's becoming a top contender for me, but I'm still waiting to hear back from USC, NYU, and Chapman.

    UCLA Producers Program 2022

    Hey there, I submitted my application to the UCLA Producers Program last night and was going over the application proof to make sure everything was submitted properly. I noticed that I could see each document that I posted except for the Producers Questionnaire. Has this happened for anyone else?

    Admitted but Not Attending (After Interview) LMU - Film and Television Production 2021

    The application process was more or less straight forward. It was fairly easy, just take your time and pace yourself to finish all the needed requirements.

    Any film schools where students can make a feature film?

    I read an interview with Black List founder and CEO Franklin Leonard in which he said, "Film schools encourage students to make their final project a feature.” Which film schools allow or encourage their students to make feature length films in school? I only know about programs where students...
