chance me! I chance back. Film school style

I’m looking to apply to the film schools on the North East like NYU, Syracuse, Ithaca, BU, Emerson, purchase, etc. but I’m worried.

GPA: 3.45
SAT:1980
I have taken 5 APs over the course of high school.

I am the president of my film club, have been actively involved in theater since the age of 7, I had intenrships with a theater as their videographer and photographer. I was a drama specialist at a sleep away camp. I attened the NY film academy for a summer institute program. I have made numerous films over high school and have won a national video competition.

I have won numerous awards including the AP scholar award, and a recognition from my senator for doing work for my community

I know MY EC’s are very strong and thee are more I haven’t listed. I’m worried my GPA is low for schools like NYU though. what do you think?

If you are a senior, there is not much you can do, but try as hard as you can. If you are not a senior you still have time to boost your gpa. But I think you should give NYU a shot. Maybe you’ll get lucky. Maybe NYU will look past your low gpa if you get a higher score on the SATs or because of your ec’s.

What is the application process for film school?

so it depends on the school. NYU has the most intense application for the schools im applying to. You submit a script or 10 minute film, you need a creative resume, and there are three extra essay questions in addition to the common app essay.

this is my senior year Btw.
