Graduate School
1

<p>These are the list of schools that I'm dreaming big and want to get into. I know they are competitive to get into:</p>

<p>University of California – Los Angeles
University of California – Berkeley
Columbia University
NYU
USC
University of Miami
California Institute of the Arts
Loyola Marymount University
Florida State University</p>

<p>I have a 3.0 G.P.A. I've Produced, Directed, Wrote, and Edited my own short film shot semi-professionally. And have worked on many film projects for my universities promotional purposes. I'm more worried that my G.P.A. is not as high enough because of my gen eds and minor classes weren't as high my first semester. My major G.P.A. is 3.5. I have 3 stellar recommendations. Can someone give me a better view of where I could possibly stand in getting into one of these schools?</p>

<p>Oh, my major for undergrad is Television Production and I plan to go into Film School after.</p>

<p>Absolutely nobody can “chance” anyone on MFA admissions because they are going to hinge almost entirely on subjective interpretations of your skills and abilities based on your creative portfolio. Nobody here has any idea how the professors at those schools are going to react.</p>
