Chapman MFA Screenwriting Applicants 2021

[Reelgurltx]

Anyone else's portal update? I've been worrying about what a blank portal means alllllll night

Same! I applied to Directing. I also applied at Chapman to creative writing and was accepted a few weeks ago. I received an email to check my portal and when I did the portal had changed and my checklist was gone, but I also had a link to a letter with my acceptance decision. This time no link, no email, no letter - just no checklist lol whyyyyyy

This wait is really excruciating. But congrats on your creative writing acceptance!!!

Be sure to update your Applications with all the decision info and share your portfolios or application materials on them if you're willing.

Also be sure to update or add your Applications of you got Waitlisted or rejected as that'll seriously help us figure out how many people from the Waitlist get admitted.

There's also new fields for age, county, film experience, and Scholarship awarded that will be very helpful to future applicants.

Hi Everyone- lurker since the fall and I just got my acceptance as well! I'm a little thrown off by the two week decision time. Anyone know the reason for the short turn around time?
Thanks to you all! And congrats

Congrats to you as well! That’s weird. My decision isn’t due until April 15, but it’s for the directing program not screenwriting. I agree that’s short! Maybe email Eva?

Ah okay, maybe it is based on the program? It does feel like a very quick window to make a big decision. I emailed Melissa because she was listed as the graduate admissions counselor, but I will let you know what I find out!

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.
