Hi everyone, I was accepted by both schools. It's very hard to make a decision. I love the location and curriculum of LMU, but Emerson seems to have a higher rank. I personally love independent films and art films, so I'm afraid that the atmosphere of creation at LMU will be too commercial, but the curriculum of Emerson seems like it's related to media studies somehow, so I'm a little bit worried about its practicalness. Is there any suggestion or study experience that could be shared? Thanks!
