<p>I am currently a senior in high school and I would very much LOVE to go to film school. I've been of course looking at the typical NYU, UCLA, Emerson, etc. (all of course VERY expensive) which is why the FSU film school caught my eye. Not only does it have a great reputation, I live only a state away and I can afford it! The only problem is the selectivity. I was hoping a current or past student could give me some advice. </p>
<p>GPA ~ 3.7-3.8
SAT - 1850 (hoping to raise it even more, hopefully higher 1900's)
Mostly A's, a couple B's.
I am also in the IB Program and I have taken a few AP courses too.
Up until my junior year of HS, I lived overseas - attending International Schools (I was hoping this might increase my chances ever so slightly)
I am very involved with TONS of extra-curricular activities (several sports, clubs, community service, etc.)</p>
<p>For the past three summers, I attended two Film Programs (1 year at the Asheville School where I had the pleasure of working with a Sundance Award winning director and 2 years at the UNC School of the Arts). I LOVED it!
I'd like to think I have a lot of experience in film for my age - and I'm also an avid photographer. Film REALLY is my life, I am very dedicated. </p>
<p>ANYWAYS, I'd love to get some feedback about my chances of being accepted, as well as general advice. Anything I can do to increase my chances? Thank You!</p>
