Film School Application Database

A database of thousands of film school applications to calculate acceptance rates to film programs and the minimum GPAs, minimum SAT and GRE scores, experience of accepted applicants, and much more....

I've added the following new application status prefixes:

Applied​

• Applied
• Interview Scheduled
• Interviewed

Admitted​

• Admitted (After Interview)
• Admitted (Without Interview)
• Declined Admission (After Interview)
• Declined Admission (Without Interview)
• Attending (Accepted After Interview)

• Declined Admission (Off Waitlist Without Interview)
• Attending (Off Waitlist After Interview)

Also the following option choices have been added:

Please update your Applications with as much info as possible. This data will then be tabulated and displayed on our new Acceptance Data pages such as here:

Admissions Statistics for Columbia University - Screenwriting/Directing (M.F.A.)

Acceptance rate, minimum GPA, SAT, GRE, and demographics of admitted applicants for Columbia University - Screenwriting/Directing (M.F.A.) calculated from our database of thousands of film school applications.

We will also be using application data from our database to add the following info on that page:

• % Admitted off wait-list (using new wait-list status prefixes)
• % Admitted who were interviewed (using status prefixes)

Is there any other data you'd like to see?

Please update your Applications to help build this useful data.

Only 80 more Applications in the database to beat last year's record.
