Admissions

APPLY NOW for Fall 2010
Deadline: January 5th

Admission Process
The Graduate Program is looking for talented individuals who have stories to tell and the creative vision and the desire to express them in the film or video medium.

We also look for qualities such as commitment, maturity, tenacity, self-awareness, and the ability to collaborate. We welcome people from other fields; filmmaking experience is not necessary.

We generally receive over 100 applications per year. The Film & Video Selection Committee interviews 30-36 candidates and 12-14 applicants are selected per year.

Interviewees are contacted about interviews within the first few weeks of March.
