Current USC Production MFA student giving advice

[JKL]

Hey all,

I know it's probably the time when everyone hears about acceptances and rejections. This is more for those who received rejections. Keep your heads up. I had to try two times before I got in.

Here's a blog I wrote while I reapplied to all the film schools a second time:

I reread it today, and it reminded me of how challenging and rewarding the process was. The dream story still gives me the chills.

How's USC been for you so far? Pros and cons? Any general advice for incoming students?

Thanks!

Hi JKL-
Have you/ are you taking on a lot of debt to attend USC? Are there ways for students to get out of there with a minimal amount of debt? Scholarships? Fellowships? T.A. ing? What are you finding is the typical way that students are handling the price tag of USC? Thanks!
