Do I need a college degree to be considered?

Considered for what?

Grad school? Yes.

The industry? Not production. Agency or development, yes.

Talking of wich...

Of course you need a Degree...

I was looking at the conditions to be accepted on USC. I believe in UCLA as well...

THey ask for an AVERAGE GRAD SCORE between 3.0 and 4.0. What on the system of my country, would be between 7.5 and 10.0...
The problem is the my Average is 6.84...
But I have an HONOURS DEGREE and the maximum score on my final project...

Should this be considered, or I will be eliminated without any consideration?

UCLA only requires a 3.0 over your last two years of study; the application even has a worksheet to help you calculate it. In my case, my overall was a 3.29, but my last two years' GPA was over a 3.8. I flunked out after my junior year but came back strong and got nearly straight As...I raised my GPA over half (.5) a point in five semesters.

My speculation is that they want to avoid students who did the opposite. Technically, you could get all As in your general, "easy" classes your first half of college, then get all Cs in your upper level major, "hard" classes, and still come out with a 3.0, so they want to see what went on when it really counted.

As for USC, the GPA requirement is for the Graduate School, not the Cinema school. If Cinema wants you, Cinema will get you. I know several students who did not have 3.0 GPAs coming in. They just had to do a little more paperwork their first semester or two, filling out progress reports, etc.

With the strong grade on the final course, I would imagine you're fine.

I hope that helps...but let's not take over Lambert's thread with this topic.
