<p>Can you tell me if I have any chance of getting into Columbia Early Decision? Will my film experience help me get in to their film program??</p>

2

<p>if you don't get in to CC, then noone will</p>

3

<p>^^^^^ agreed</p>

4

<p>the filming experience is very impressive and shows dedication since they started quite early. goodluck!</p>

5

<p>Did you apply to CC?</p>

6

<p>i applied to CC</p>

7

<p>Explain to me your work experience. Did you found the website? If so, that would make you the webmaster, not the founder. I looked at the page, and the guy who founded it definitely doesn't look like a senior in high school.</p>

8

<p>I created the website, but am also the VP of studio wings. My dad and I founded the company together, my dad steve is the one in the pic on the website! I am his "assistant" on all of his jobs.</p>

<p>Oh, that's pretty awesome then. Now, I'm just wondering why you wanted to go into Columbia's film program. Offhand, I would think that NYU or USC's film program is probably a bit better than Columbia's. Just a thought.</p>

10

<p>well, i've always wanted to live in New York, and I really want to attend law school at columbia as well, my fil career is just like a "hook"</p>

11

<p>Attending CC wouldn't improve your chances at Columbia Law.</p>

<p>Btw I'm still laughing about your Kumon "award". Kumon is ****.</p>

<p>"Will my film experience help me get in to their film program??"</p>

<p>I thought that was referring to the fact that you have a passion for film. However, after a little research I found out that Columbia only has a film program at a graduate level (graduate MFA program). Anyway, if your why columbia including things about Columbia Law and NYC, then I'd say your chances have slimmed down a bit.</p>
