Thought it would be a good idea to have a forum for people to discuss acceptances and top choices etc.

me:
UCLA: accepted,
USC: silence, no interview, no login, no letter

Anyone else?

Congrats! To which specific programs did you apply?

Which way are you leaning?

Directing, USC top choice, would have also liked to apply to AFI but didn't have the reel for it. Still thankful for what i have...

Screenwriting here.

USC: accepted
Northwestern: accepted
UCLA: interview pending (whenever they get around to scheduling me!)
UT-Austin's Michener Center: denied.

I'm going wherever I can get the best deal. I'm crazy enough to hope for an Annenberg at USC. Otherwise the tuition seems ridiculously exorbitant, especially for an out-of-stater. Oh, but the prestige!

Hmm, this thread might get confused with the Acceptances 2009 from last year. Because this is year should be Acceptances for Fall 2010 right?

But at UCLA you can get in-state the second yeard. Just sayin'

Northwestern University MFA in Writing for Screen in Stage-Accepted-03/07/2010

Ohio University-Rejected 03/19/2010

I'll be honest I don't even care. It was at the bottom of my list of schools I applied to.

Chapman University- MFA in TV and Film Producing -(no word yet)

Columbia University-MFA in Creative Producing (No word yet and no interview)

It's unlikely that I will get into Columbia (since I didn’t receive and interview), but I'm still holding out hope. I feel real honored and lucky to have gotten into Northwestern. I really like their approach to writing and think they are on to something. The only other school I'm considering is Chapman University.

Is that true? If I get into UCLA (I interview on Saturday), I'm going to need more information about that.

I believe it's true. But you may also want to consider the recent troubles California has been having with Higher Education. They are raising Tuition by 14% in the fall 2010 and it's expected to rise again for fall 2011. They way things are going UCLA and other state California schools will be on par with the USC, COLUMBIA's and NYU's.

Should be all you need to know.

can someone please ask a mod/admin to change the name of this thread to "Acceptances Fall '10". For some reason this is bothering me lol

09 is my bad, sorry guys. i tried to do the pen and pad thing and asked the help section how to change it, on the top it now says '10, but it doesn't register on the "Active Filmmaking Topics". hah bothers me too.

USC: Accepted (Animation)
UCLA: No word (Animation)
NYU: Rejected (Directing)
COLUMBIA: Silence (Directing)

NYU, Film Production: Rejected
Columbia, Film Production: Silence is golden.
Boston, Film Production: ACCEPTED
Northwestern, Screenwriting: (interview, no answer yet)
Emerson Film Production: ACCEPTED
