<p>I'm wondering if anyone knows the acceptance rate specifically to the film program at various schools (not their published overall whole college rate).</p>
<p>I'm most interested in the ones my son is applying to:
USC (I know even the different majors within their SCA have different rates)
Emerson
Columbia College Chicago</p>
<p>Just wondering what odds he's up against.</p>
<p>Thanks!!</p>
<p>bump…</p>
<p>Anyone know?</p>
<p>I know USC admits only 26 students in its Writing for Television program.
Emerson isn’t very strict. It has around 40%-60% acceptance rate.
Columbia College Chicago is a for-profit college I think, which means it has a 100% acceptance rate.</p>
<p>I’m applying to the same colleges, to be honest.</p>
<p>Thanks for the reply, TommasoP. I did not know that Columbia College Chicago had such a lax admission policy. I assume they are more selective when they “admit” students to their most lucrative scholarships.</p>
<p>I knew that Emerson’s overall acceptance rate is around 50%, but I think their film program is much more selective, just because they get so many applicants to that major. So I was wondering what that rate was.</p>
<p>Good luck to you, by the way! I know how stressful it is to not know where you’ll be in a year!</p>
