Chapman MFA TV Writing & Producing Applicants 2021

Do we have any idea as to how many people on the waitlist typically get in? I imagine this year there may not be any slots but here’s hoping!

Hey guys!! I'm going to start a Chapman MFA Facebook page (For all people under the film MFA umbrella)!! if you're interested in being a part of the group join Chapman Off housing and comment on my post! (It's an easy post to spot, I mention that I'm going into screenwriting and a bunch of people commented their programs) So excited to meet you all!! 😁😁😁
 
Congrats to everyone who got in! I just checked and I'm still on the waitlist 😢

Does anyone know if that is all they are going to admit off the waitlist? Or is it still a waiting game at this point?

If you could update your application with all the important notification dates, your final status (accepted, rejected, off waitlist, attending... etc), how much scholarship money was awarded (if any), your undergraduate degree, GPA, test scores etc that would be AWESOME and very helpful to the site's members. If you could update your application with examples of your submitted material that would be even more awesome.

The Acceptance Rates & Data page for each school uses all this data to help future applicants. To see the data for a particular film school, find your school in our film school database and select the Acceptance Rates & Data tab.

Chapman just sent me an update saying their class is full 😢

Guess I'll have to reapply again next year. Anyone else on the same boat? Or did anyone get an acceptance today?
Bummer. :( Be sure to add your Applications to our database when you can.

Good luck in the next round!
