Hello!
My name is Maia. I am a sixteen year old sophomore in high school, and I aspire to attend USC School of Cinematic Arts in some capacity, either for their Film and Television Production Program or their Screenwriting Program. Unlike most, it hasn't always been my lifelong dream, but now that I've become set on my goal I am intent on reaching it. If anyone has any advice for me, or things that I can do to up my chances or improve myself for attractiveness for the program, I'd appreciate any help. Film and Television is a conglomerate of everything I love, and my passion for it is vast. I apologize for my lack of tact, but I would like some advice on what I can do to improve my chances of attending. Below is a list of things I've done so far, and if any of you know what else I can add to my resume to make me seem attractive to USC SCA, please let me know! I'm not too versed in the cinematic arts just yet, but below is my creative and professional resume.
- 4.1 GPA
- Merit Scholar
- Honor Society
- Drama Student of the Year
- Black Belt in Karate ( 9 year training)
- Junior Olympic Qualifier for Karate
- Assistant teacher for Karate
- 2-year President of Creative Writing Club
- Worked on webcomics and entered Webtoon Contest 2018
- Organized and ran an cumulative single-narrative anthology with 20+ students
- Featured artwork in official cookbook and zine publications
- Treasurer of Comic Illustration Club, Creative Writing, and Art and Animation Club
- Leadership Council (Co-President)
- Summer Camp Junior Volunteer Counselor/Staff
Awards: Gold Key Regional Scholastic Winner in the Arts, Drama Student of the Year (x1), Relationship Award (x2), Servant Leadership Award (x2), Academic Excellence Award (x1), Merit Scholar (x1), Le Grand Concours French Contest Silver Medalist, Washington State Shudokan Karate Tournament Gold Medal, Canada Karate Tournament Silver Medal (x2), Honor Society.
I know it isn't an ideal, given that many of you have been studying and preparing for USC your whole lives. However, if you have any advice for a newbie and hopeful attendee, I'd really appreciate it, so I can prepare to apply in the next 2 years.
Thank you!
