LMU Film & TV Production MFA - 2022

[e96]

People next year be like “Decisions last year didn’t come out until April. That will be the longest wait” then hear back beginning of March

 

[lskel]

No , I can’t sleep!!

It looks like screenwriting folks started to hear back (congrats, everybody!) so hopefully we’re soon!

Hey frenz! Update: I just emailed and asked if there was an ETA on decisions and Cheryl (who has always been super kind and awesome in my interactions with her) responded: "I'm waiting on the decisions from the Program Director. I'm hoping to get them out later next week or early the week after. I apologize for the delay."

Thank you for the update. Although this is becoming a bit frustrating, this process is definitely teaching us patience.

Also perhaps there was such a strong pool of applicants that it’s making it difficult for them to make a decision! Wishing everyone the best.

Just received the email! I got in!!!

I got in too with a $6,000 scholarship!! Congratulations! I literally can’t believe it. What a way to end this admissions process

 

[lskel]

Also got in with a $6k scholarship! (Thanks for sharing yours—love transparency about the monnnnnies and wish all schools were more upfront about that stuff!) Now to decide between the way more affordable LMU or the way less affordable AFI. tbh, LMU was one of my top choices. The facilities look amazing, students had really great things to say about their experiences there, I've heard campus is beautiful, and the faculty/staff have been rad along the process. The big one for me is student experience from current students/alums. I think that says A LOT more about about a program than its roster of alums...which is why I think Hollywood Reporter rankings and the like are bogus...[puts away soapbox before it's too late.]..All that to say, congrats to everyone who got in!! And congrats to everyone who applied! These applications are no joke and regardless of the outcome, we are all filmmakers. <3

Does anyone happen to know the size of incoming classes at LMU? 36 is in my head but that could be way wrong.

I believe that it’s about 40!

Hey there. Yeah definitely you still do have a good chance. People even get notified by the month of May. So Chill

USC released admissions over the span of a few days so you definitely have a chance!
