Hello all,
I’m a recently accepted graduate student who will be attending AFI in the fall within the Screenwriting discipline. This past year, I applied to MFA programs for the first time and I unfortunately only discovered this website shortly after I submitted my last application. Being that...
Hey guys,
So I want to apply to the Fall 2020 admissions for the USC MFA in Writing for Screen and TV and the UCLA Screenwriting MFA. I'm from the UK and our system works really differently here so I don't really understand what I'm doing. Can anyone else who's applied to these, or just US...
I'm in the summer before applying for an MFA in film & tv production, and I'm looking to help around Boston for some small productions (fyi I've never been on an actual set before which is what this summer is for). I'm responding to an advertisement online for a BU MFA student's production. For...
The Stony Brook MFA in Film is the only graduate program in the SUNY system fiercely dedicated to independent filmmaking. Our approach is simple — roll up your sleeves and dive in. With today's technology, all you need is a well-crafted story, a realistic plan, and the drive to make it happen...
Turns out those who got rejected never received emails??? They just got their letters in the mail around mid-March (which, if you ask me, is cruel).
Apparently, someone had done this thing where they logged into:
camel2.usc.edu/AdmGradCertification/
(just put in your USC ID and birthday) and...
Hey everyone,

Hey folks,
So I discovered this site a month ago, and have been voraciously reading the posts here and been gleaning lots of useful information as I consider my upcoming applications to film schools. I wanted to throw down my base profile, and get some thoughts and feedback about the...
Hey folks,
So I've been on this site for about a month now reading up and gleaning some very useful info about all the film programs, which I will hopefully apply to at the end of this year. And I noticed one thing was missing for me and that is: a clear single-look document that so I could look...
Thought I'd start a central thread - they've been nice in previous years to quickly spot which school is in what stage and for us all to come together in one spot.
so far AFI (directing, screenwriting and producing) has sent out interview invites. Doesn't look like any others have gone out...
