    Admitted (w/o Interview) Chapman MFA Production Design

    Very straightforward process. Their application is very easy to follow. I'm just a bit anxious about the portfolio because I'm not sure what they were looking for exactly. I tried including a bit of everything!

    Denied (w/o Interview) NYU Tisch Graduate Film MFA - 2022

    This was my third application completed so far and it was by far my favorite. NYU's directions were simple and straightforward, and I had fun writing the requested pieces. I adore NYU's program (and location, since I already live in and love NYC), so I'm really crossing my fingers for this one!

    Admitted but Not Attending (After Interview) USC Fall 2022 MFA in Film and Television Production

    It's been alright! I struggled with what to submit for the media sample since it had to be five minutes or less. I kind of wish I had just made a short film specifically for submission because I'm not sure if what I submitted had enough of a story to it or was compelling enough. It was more of...

    Waitlisted (After Interview) USC MFA in Film & Television Production - Fall 2022

    This application was pretty tough for me, just because it required so much info and writing, which made completing it time-intensive. I'm currently staying with my parents to help out after an unexpected family death, on top of working full-time, so I wasn't able to dedicate as much time to the...

    USC Film/TV Production MFA Media Sample - Existing project or brand new one?

    I can’t exactly tell what’s expected for the Media Sample for the USC MFA Film and TV application - do we have to make a brand new original video for the purpose of applying to USC, or can we use a video we’ve already made in the past? I would prefer to submit a project I worked on two years...

    Admitted but Not Attending (After Interview) LMU SFTV MFA

    This application took me most of the month as well. I enjoyed the treatment and unforgettable moment submission. I liked that we were able to add a visual sample as applicants for the directing program. They also allow you to apply for a scholarship within the application which I appreciated...

    Denied (After Interview) UCLA Film Production MFA-Fall 2022

    It took me most of the month to work through the application and it still took me some time today to fine-tune it. I feel indifferent toward their selection process for directing applicants because they don't want a video submission in your supplemental materials so that makes me curious if a...
