<p>I applied Early Decision back in November, sent in my portfolio pieces a few weeks ago, and had my phone interview last Tuesday. Has anyone heard anything else from the film school? </p>
<p>Also, when does scholarship information come out? With the acceptance letter, or later?</p>
<p>So? Anyone hear anything?</p>
<p>They just sent out their stuff last week</p>
<p>I friend of my S at his school in Encino just got his acceptance letter to the film school yesterday. They're on their way!!!</p>
<p>I got a thank you card for sending in all my information.</p>
<p>so does that mean I won't get anything till later?</p>
<p>HOLY SH~~~ I got an email that I GOT ACCEPTED! The mail is on its way... Chapman 2010... Dodge College... FILM!</p>
<p>wait an email??? </p>
<p>how do you know the mail is coming?? MORE INFO!</p>
<p>Yep, I got an email from them, and it said Congratulations, and the mail is on its way.</p>
<p>did you get the thank you note?</p>
<p>I didn't apply to film--just the regular school.</p>
<p>I got my packet and I'm accepted :) 15,000 Provost scholarship too as well and the financial aid person told me I had a grant and would be pleased. We'll see what that means when my aid package comes.</p>
<p>Congrats to everyone else that got in!</p>
<p>oh no! when is the cut off for acceptances??</p>
<p>what are your stats anoel and mongooser?</p>
<p>congrats to everybody too.</p>
<p>I JUST GOT MY ACCEPTANCE BY EMAIL TODAY!!!! :D</p>
<p><i>Congratulations and welcome to Chapman University! I am so pleased to tell you that you have been admitted to the Dodge College of Film and Media Arts for the class of 2010!</i></p>
<p>My stats: 3.3 GPA UW, lots of honors and AP classes, 690 CR. 660 M, 650 W 2000 overall SAT. Alright ECs, great essay</p>
<p>Got a 10,000 grant which makes it realistic for me to go there. So I might be going then.</p>
<p>My daughter called yesterday and was told that due to "an unexpected surge of applications" they might not have all the responses out until the week of the 10th.</p>
<p>Last night at nearly 10:00 p.m. she received her acceptance email.</p>
<p>Anoel, when did you hear about your grant? Was it with your acceptance letter?</p>
<p>It wasn't with my acceptance letter, but I received it the day after (which was yesterday, 4/5/06). I'm just glad they're quick with the financial aid unlike other colleges I was accepted to.</p>
<p>I was just admitted to the film school as a Film Production major and was wondering if people in this forum (although biased) believe that it would be worthwhile to go to a dedicated film school over a liberal arts one (Occidental). Seems like it'll be a life-altering decision... Any help?</p>
<p>All I can say is: If you have to ask yourself whether you want to take the risk and go all Film, you won't survive.</p>
<p>I'm serious... I'm going into Film knowing that the odds are I will end up crushed. But I made the decision a long time ago that this is what I want to do, and I'm going to stick to that decision. If you're wary and all about doing Film, if you don't have enough passion for filmmaking that you are not willing to take the risk, I suggest you don't do it.</p>
<p>But if you choose to go to Chapman, great! I'll be seeing you there this fall. :D</p>
