Hi everyone,
I thought I'd create an official thread for prospective Columbia University MFA Film applicants (similar to the ones created in previous years). It appears that around this time, the Producing applicants started getting notified about interviews. Past patterns have shown that...
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.!
Should be hearing from the school relatively soon regarding interviews. Anybody heard anything yet?
I dug a little bit through the site and these are the earliest dates in each application period that people have been contacted about an interview/rejection:
Fall 2014 = 1/17/2014 (interview...
Haven't seen anyone start this thread this year.

First time applying. Background in music production, short fiction, couple of small...
Hi guys,
Since the deadline is getting closer, I am worried about the formatting issues. I wonder for Columbia MFA's creative materials, such as treatments, do we have to submit in 12-courier font like the autobiographical essay? Or just normal, like 11, time-roman is ok?
Thanks!
Hey all! I've been lurking around the forum a while reading up as much as I can on USC's film programs in particular, because I'm planning on getting into either the Film Production or Peter Stark programs in 2016.
Now, being an international student, my situation's somewhat unique, and I...
Could someone clarify this for me? The UCLA Screenwriting MFAApplication procedures says to both UPLOAD and MAIL the departmental application along with the statement of purpose and writing samples. Is it just me or does this seem rather strange? I'm mostly concerned because I'm living abroad...

Hi guys,
I'm a current MFA Production Student at USC and I love it! I also got accepted to NYU, Columbia, and Loyola Marymount.

I'm a graduating highschool senior and I know that I want to work in the television and film industry. I've been doing research and some people seem to think that it's harder to get into a grad film school if you already have an undergrad in film because the grad school committees want...

I'm curious about...
