    Denied (w/o Interview) NYU TISCH - GRADUATE FILM MFA

    For the visual sample, they said you could either submit a collection of photographs or a short film, but not both, which was confusing since I initially wanted to submit a short documentary. I chose not to because it included both photographs and video, as they typically do. I wasn't blindsided...

    Denied (w/o Interview) NYU Tisch Dramatic Writing MFA 2025

    I applied for seven schools this year, all very competitive. It's my first round of applications so I am hoping to at least get interviewed or waitlisted somewhere, but I'm not necessarily expecting to get in this year.

    Attending (Admitted After Interview) NYU Dramatic Writing MFA

    Not too bad. The waiting is the worst. I will say it wasn’t too foreign for me. I went to USC for undergrad but in cinema and media studies. I submitted my first (and only) pilot I ever wrote. 65 pages, historical sci fi drama. The interview was casual and went very well. I tried not to...

    Applied NYU Tisch Graduate Film - Fall 2023

    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!!!

    Waitlisted (After Interview) NYU Dramatic Writing - Fall 2022

    Everything was good so far. I honestly didn't think I would come this far as I'm applying for the first time and had no previous experience with screenwriting. I was very happy to get an interview request :) NYU has always been a dream for me.

    Denied (w/o Interview) FALL 2022 - NYU Dramatic Writing MFA

    Pretty well, this application came together fairly quickly but the Personal Statement, as always, was a little bit tricky - there's just a lot that you have to try and get across whilst also attempting to be different and interesting.

    Doubts about which activities or productions I should be involved - NYU/MFA in Film

    Hello! My name is Carol, I'm a freshman at my college and I've been taking the possibility of shooting my shoot at the NYU Film Grad very seriously when I get to graduate. Although this may only happen a couple years from now, I am very certain I should work on my creative portfolio as hard as I...

    Is it normal for NYU Grad to haven't viewed your application yet? At this time???

    I followed the advice on the forum and checked my vimeo stats to see whether have anyone viewed my materials. But since the interviews invitations are coming out Feb 10th, I'm a little panicked as no one has watched my short film yet. Is it normal? They are just taking it slow? Or it means I...

    NYU Stern MFA/MBA Feature Film Concept - Can it be someone else's script that you as a producer would want to develop or can it be an idea you have?

    Hi Everyone! I have a question regarding the one page film concept for the creative portfolio at Tisch, I read on this thread that "the concept is simply an idea for a feature film that you may wish to develop should you be accepted into the program. therefore we assume its not something...

    NYU Tisch Visual Submission - Are we to upload only one film for the submission or can we upload more than one?

    Hi, I had a question about the visual submission for NYU. Are we to upload only one film for the submission or can we upload more than one (all edited to be in one video) so long as total runtime is under the limit? Thanks!

    Does the dramatic story for NYU's Grad film program have to be at MAX 2 pages?

    Working on the dramatic story I tried cutting down as much as I could and right now it's at about 2 and 1/2 pages. The instructions said to write a 2-page story but I'm not sure if they meant that it has to be strictly under 2 pages or slightly over 2 pages.
