It has been a dream for me to attend Film School in the US to get the correct grooming to be more successful in the field. Unfortunately, I have received rejection from most schools in the US even before my merit or credentials could be processed all owing to the fact that I have a three year bachelor degree from India (which is a standard for courses like Economics and Business in our country).
At this point I received emails from Syracuse, American University, Texas at Austin and USc stating that my degree is ineligible. It has now become extremely frustrating given that it becomes very pointless to complete a masters in India and then go abroad to do another masters (which is apparently their requirement).
Only four film schools in the US had said they would accept the Three Year degree which were: NYU, Chapman, Art Centre College and Brooklyn College.
But then just recently my application at Brooklyn College was processed and I had cleared the mark and received an interview notification. I even gave the interview which went fairly well but then after all of this hassle I was informed a week later that the University will not accept my degree as equivalent to a US degree (Even though the WES evaluation states that it is).
I feel helpless at the moment and I have a bad feeling all the other potential schools would also reject me on this basis which is totally unfair.
Would appreciate it if someone could give me tips on how to overcome this problem or suggest schools that accept a degree of three years length?
