    Waitlisted (After Interview) NYU Dramatic Writing - 2023

    Good. I spent about a year writing my feature script, so I feel good about my chances. I am waiting to see if I get an interview or not, but the waiting is hard!

    Applied NYU FILM - 2023

    Fine. The application process was incredibly confusing (the different sites where I had to upload materials). I thought it was interesting that this was the only application I submitted that required a picture of me...

    Applied NYU Dramatic Writing MFA | Fall 2023

    NYU has the most straightforward application process for any grad school I've applied to. You simply submit your script (or play in my case), your resume, two letters of recommendation (although I submitted four, two professional and two academic letters), and a statement of purpose. It is also...

    Waitlisted (After Interview) NYU MFA Dramatic Writing Fall 2023

    The only school that didn't ask for extra creative materials but did ask for a full length pilot. They had the option of submitting an additional 30-minute pilot (to total 60 pages all together) which I did do this year, I didn't do this the first time I applied in 2020 and regretted it haha.

    Denied (w/o Interview) NYU Dramatic Writing - Fall 2023

    This was the only school I applied to that required a full work, so I put a lot of effort into that. I submitted a 30-minute dramedy pilot. Other than that, the app was fairly easy. NYU is my dream school and has been even before undergrad, so here's to hoping!

    Denied (After Interview) MFA Dramatic Writing - NYU

    I've really enjoyed myself! It inspired me to write and gave me the motivation to finish my screenplay! I submitted a half an hour pilot in US format. I did find it really hard writing the statement of purpose with such a small amount of words but I was really happy with it in the end after...

    Admitted but Not Attending (After Interview) MFA Film - NYU

    Writing the portfolio was fun! It was great to be able to sit down with a prompt and be as creative as possible and I really loved the pitch concept. For my application, I also concentrated on writing and directing.

    Advice needed on the film in portfolio for schools

    Hi everyone, I'm in the process of applying to MFAs in the US, Canada and the UK and as you all know they all require some form of visual sample of your work. Now, I attempted to shoot a short film this year that I was going to use to apply for film school with and I spent a lot of money on it...

    Submitted on the same day as USC's deadline to release the burden in my chest. Spend a whole year preparing my creative materials for NYU as this is my top priority among the film schools I applied to, so fingers crossed!!!

    NYU, USC, UCLA, and Stony Brook - how do you ask for more funding/scholarship?

    Hi everyone, I’m wondering how those of you have negotiated higher scholarships went about it? Did you just write an email to admissions or the financial aid office, or did you go through a formal appeal process? If you did write an email, what information did you include? I feel very...
