<p>Anyone out there know which is better -New School Eugene Lang or School of Visual Arts program? Any specifics regarding those two programs (back ups for NYU application) would be much appreciated</p>

<p>Film is more than Cinematic arts. You also should now include animation. If you count animation, you should add it Ringling College of Art, Calarts, Pratt, Laguna College of Art, Digipen, Academy of Art University, SCAD, Art Center College of Design and Depaul University, and Chapman College</p>

<p>Here is a master list from another site:</p>

<h2>[Directory</a> of Film Schools](<a href=“http://www.imdb.com/filmschools]Directory”>http://www.imdb.com/filmschools)</h2>

<p>Moderator Note: Nice list, RSBuletz. Where would we be without IMDB?! </p>

<p>I’m just pointing out that this link includes many “freestanding” film schools, along with those offering a film major within a College and University degree. Readers should check each entry on the list with care.</p>

<p>As noted in the Opening Post, this thread should include: </p>

<p>

</p>

<h2>Since this list includes some of both, I am grateful for the contribution of RSBuletz.</h2>

<p>The 5Cs also have a film program, for “film/media studies” with production in there.</p>
