As they mentioned at the Open Day, it should be around 8-10

I think we all have a chance of success！and Does anyone know how many applicants there are for cinematography each year？

On the general open day in march Stuart Harris (co head of the course) said that each year the course receives about 200-300 applications, 100 of whom will be interviewed, and than 30 applicants will be selected for the workshop. Eventually 10 applicants will start the course in 25'.

Please take everything I've said with a grain of salt as I'm not a native speaker and may have misunderstood something Mr. Harris said on the open day.

Have you ever heard of anyone getting an interview？Why did they send out some rejections on Friday…very confused

 

[wang zhaoyang]

Did they ever send rejection earlier than the interview？

 

[Mero Kazemi]

I have no idea

Rejected today to everyone who has been rejected like me. NFTS is a big jump to get into the industry but it's not the only way to get into it. Believe in yourself and show them who they've lost. keep it up
