AFI Screenwriting Fall 2021 (2 Viewers)

Hey, I think I saw that tweet too, the Australian girl? I think she was actually accepted last year (yes I did stalk her twitter haha) so maybe she deferred? Not sure though. I haven't heard anything yet but was told decisions would be released March 15th

Lol. Yes, the Aussie girl. And for the record, I was not stalking. It was more for research haha. Gotta love social media.

Hey all!

Has anyone heard back from admissions? Someone on Twitter (an international applicant) posted that they were accepted into the Screenwriting program last week. However, 2020 notifications happened around mid-March. Maybe it's different for international applicants?

Nothing here...
When I did the interview, I was told that decisions would be on March 15th as well!

Hi All! While I agree that decisions probably are going out March 15th, I got an email from Robin Bailey-Chen (from AFIs financial aid department) a while ago about FAFSA stuff. I bring this up because their email said "financial aid award notifications will be sent in mid-March, after admissions decisions are made. " Maybe this is an indication that decision acceptance notifications will go out definitely by the 15th, but maybe a little sooner?! But maybe the application season craze is making me read into every AFI email? haha

Got the email, too. I'm starting to suspect that @Chris W is secretly working with grad admissions. I could be wrong. But my gut tells me I'm right.

I guess I was right. @Chris W is in fact secretly working with Grad Admissions. In fact, he's in an upcoming movie many of you might be familiar with.

Admission: Impossible

I would love to interview AFI admissions like we did for USC. NYU too.

Starring the applicants whose fingers were replaced with machines to press the F5 button faster.

What questions do you have for the AFI Conservatory Admissions office?

The AFI Conservatory Admissions office has graciously agreed to be interviewed for an article on FilmSchool.org similar to the one that we have with USC. What questions would you like to ask them? We're compiling a list of questions now and would love to add any questions you might have for...

Hi AFI applicants! Dropping in from the LMU threads to wish you all as much calm as possible ahead of D-Day: MFA Edition. Best of luck to each of you.
