AFI Previous Experience?

[DunDun]

From the discussions on AFI here, it seems AFI favors directing/production applicants who have good previous experience, on set or from undergrad.

I've only got a half completed short in post at the moment, and have no experience otherwise (was an Econ major).

What are your thoughts/knowledge on AFI directing selection?
