    Waitlisted (w/o Interview) LMU BA film and television production

    I applied early action but was deferred. And then I was waitlisted. I am really hoping to get off the wait list because it's my top choice among the schools that haven't outright rejected me.

    Loyola Marymount Screenwriting - Current/Alum Students POV

    Hi! I was admitted with a pretty good scholarship to LMU for the MFA Writing for the Screen program and am really excited at the prospect of the program. I'd love to hear from either screenwriting MFA track at LMU, current or past students. How is your experience? What's your biggest takeaway...

    Admitted (w/o Interview) LMU-School of Film and Television

    The whole process was easy and painless. I started the application in December 2023, but did not submit until January 31, 2024. I submitted an essay describing myself and my future goals, and uploaded a link to my vimeo account with three short films.

    The Brave and the Bold

    Hello all! My name is Dave and I am currently pursuing graduate studies in Film Production. Like some of you on here, my path to filmmaking was not the most traditional. I had previously attended Colorado State University - Pueblo straight out of high school but a personal tragedy prompted me to...

    What questions do you have for the Loyola Marymount University admissions department?

    I'm excited to announce our admissions department interview with Loyola Marymount University is taking place this September! In 2022, THR ranked LMU no. 8 in its annual list of the top film schools in America, and U.S. News & World Report ranked LMU no. 14 in the nation for best undergraduate...

    Admitted (After Interview) LMU Writing for the Screen MFA

    This is the only application of the five that wanted a 2-minute introduction video, which I liked. I think it is a good way for them to get to know you as a person before the real interviews. The interview itself felt very natural from the start, with the interviewers feeling much less stoic...

    Admitted but Not Attending (After Interview) LMU Screenwriting MFA 2023

    Pretty long personal statement compared to some places. A lot of choice with the writing prompt which I liked. Had to do a video statement, which was strange and unexpected. But in the end it is a fun way to express yourself once you get into it. I think they like it if you do something outside...

    LMU Writing for the Screen MFA 2023

    I haven't noticed a thread posted for this year yet, but if there has been one feel free to merge this with it or just delete it. Anyway, has anyone else applied here? I had a pretty good interview, but I haven't yet heard back one way or the other. Chapman's admissions came out today, so I'm...

    Admitted (After Interview) LMU MFA Film and Television Production - Fall 2023

    Many materials... I shot the 8 frames with legos because it's hard for me to find good locations to shoot. (You can find me on Instagram. Feel free to ask.)

    AFI vs. LMU

    Apart from getting into AFI (Editing), I have gotten into Loyola Marymount University too. It's a 3-year Film and TV Production MFA course, with an emphasis on Editing. Have you heard anything about this? And how is its reputation in the industry? One of the major reasons I am considering this...

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

    I didn't hear back until today. LMU's decision is the last one I'm waiting for in this application year. It's a great school with a wonderful Film Production program and has the best scenery and environment, which is also one of the reasons I applied for. I probably won't attend, but I highly...

    The application was heavy on required writing samples, which is to be expected. Overall it was a smooth experience, and I spent most of my time working on scripts and my personal statement.

    Good! I loved the creative writing prompt and liked the amount of material that we were able to submit along with our application. I am super excited for the interview and want to get a better grasp on the difference between the Chapman and LMU programs.

    Attending (Admitted After Interview) LMU - TV Writing and Producing 2022

    The application process was pretty easy but I did notice that LMU required more writing samples than other programs that I've applied to so far. Other than that it was pretty straightforward. I also had an undergrad film professor that went to LMU so I reached out to him for a recommendation, I...
