    Waitlisted (After Interview) USC Directing/Film Production MFA

    This was my first time applying, I applied to UCLA as well. The process was simple and the prompts were creative and let me excel at what I was best at. The hardest part was trying to graduate and fill out my grad applications at the same time. However since I always knew that I wanted to get...

    Applied USC SCA Film and Television Production BFA

    It has been an informative and at times difficult (but fun) process. I went to one of USC's regional information sessions where I was lucky enough to attend a breakout room with a faculty member from SCA, where she answered a lot of important questions! This is my dream school, so I have put a...

    Interviewed USC SCA - Film and Television Production BFA

    It's scary knowing their acceptance rate is so low. In my essays I talked about how I wanted to double major in computer science and integrate the two fields together. Also I wrote my short story in like one day... Dm me if you want to see the actual documents I submitted.

    Denied (w/o Interview) USC MFA Writing for Screen and Television

    Lengthy application with multiple prompt sections. Long form essays, speaking about experiences included as well. Only allows for up to 10 pages of a screenplay. Not challenging, but definitely takes a decent amount of time. Financial aid prompts and additional screenplay to receive scholarships

    Admitted (w/o Interview) USC MFA Grad Writing for Film and TV

    No big surprises or administrative hurdles. I also applied to the grad producing program and they did have me rank the two programs in terms of preference which I thought was interesting. The two scene prompts were interesting and fun to get into.

    Applied USC MFA Peter Stark Producing Program

    I'm pretty verbose by nature, so the character limits were tough. Other than that, I found the application pretty straightforward. I applied to more than one program, and they do ask you to rank them in order of preference.

    Denied (w/o Interview) USC Film Production MFA

    I've really enjoyed the MFA application process. After being out of school for almost 10 years, it's been nice to get my creative fluids flowing again and reflecting on what I am motivated by and what I would like to focus on in terms of creative scope.

    Waitlisted (w/o Interview) USC Film MFA Spring 2025

    The application requirements changed between last year and this year, so while I’m bringing the same core concept, I'm using a different approach to align with this year’s criteria. The short film requirement, in particular, had to be completely reimagined due to USC’s updated prompt.

    USC Film MFA Spring 2025, anyone?

    Waitlisted last year and waiting for this year's announcement—hoping this is finally my lucky break! (P.S. This is my fourth time applying to USC!)

    Attending (Off Waitlist After Interview) USC MFA Film and Television Production - Spring 2025

    Application process has been pretty good so far. I liked that this application seemed to lean more into you as a creative and encouraged applicants to take a creative spin on what they were submitting. The main hiccup I had along the way was trying to figure out how to submit my transcripts to...
