Hello,
Did you send out a hand written thank you note after your interview? Is this important? Is an email better?
The interview was 3 weeks ago. I know they just did the 2nd round of interviewing and will be deciding in the next 2 weeks.
Any thoughts?
Any NU alum still around? Considering it's such a small and highly selective program, I'm having a hard time finding any sort of admissions timeline for interviews or when people received acceptance. I understand it is slightly rolling until all 12 spots are filled and this year they're saying...

I'm here to...

A thread for applicants to the 2015 UCLA graduate program in directing. What's your background? What kind of stories do you intend to tell? What do you think of the way the program is organized? Has your interview request come in yet?
Etc.!
Hey all,
Wanted to start a thread for all the twitchy, anxious film nerds like myself who are still waiting on notices from the graduate programs. I applied exclusively for a directing and producition MFA at UT Austin, UCLA, NYU, FSU, and LMU.
So far I have been accepted by UT Austin, and have...
After looking through the site, I've noticed that most of the threads are spread out by school or outdated by a year. As such, I'm going to start a new post for those of us that submitted MFA packages for the upcoming fall semester. I personally submitted to:
Columbia College Chicago
USC...

Hello guys, I have a interview for Montclair State University, under a film making major. This is my second interview and I want to make some improvements. The last interview I had no questions to ask and it was just awkward. So I hope the users on this website can assist me in thinking of...
I'm interviewing for an MFA in Screenwriting. They gave no helpful info on what to wear. Is a suit too formal? Is a sweater and dress pants too casual? I have no idea. Thanks :)

Hi All :),

Greetings!
So there are a bunch of wonderful threads for individual schools but there are a few less popular schools I applied to--and I am sure many of you are on the same boat (Boston University, UT Austin, Columbia College Chicago...)
I thought it might be a good idea to start a...
