Chapman MFA Screenwriting Applicants 2021

[its_me_mari]

Umm....me too. Like what the hell Chapman. It's Monday. Don't play with my emotions. If anything, I'll probably drive by the campus after work and storm the Admissions office and demand to know whether or not I've been accepted.

Sign me in!
I'll be joining via Zoom!

AFI then?

AFI then?

Yes, sir! AFI was always at the top of my list. In retrospect, I should've just applied to AFI. Would've saved $300 lol. Think of how many In n Out double-doubles I could've had during the pandemic haha.

I'm pretty sure someone answered this in the AMA forum.

If I remember correctly from the info-session, classes were still all online, especially for screenwriting majors. I know other schools will be doing a hybrid come Fall. Assuming a majority of the population is vaccinated by summer, most if not all, schools will resume to in-person with Covid safety protocols. I know AFI said hybrid come Fall.

Thx! I really hope they'll be at least hybrid!

Hi @lucychoi97, my scholarship information came with my acceptance letter yesterday. An additional letter called "scholarship letter" was attached at the bottom of the acceptance letter on my portal. I'm not sure whether they are or are not sending out more scholarships
