<p>This is rather unique.</p>

<p>From the FSU Film School Website:</p>

<p>FSU is the only film school in the country that pays for the production costs of all of its students’ films, thereby creating a level playing field for students to focus on art, craft and imagination, instead of fundraising. To ensure that this high caliber of education is available to the most talented student regardless of financial means, the university offers generous scholarships and assistantships, and tuition costs that are among the lowest in the country.</p>

<p>Alumni are unusually involved with the school and actively work to transition graduates into the industry. They assign mentors to every graduate, and then coordinate with faculty and staff to create career plans for students before they leave the program. This provides virtually 100% of the school’s graduates with meaningful work in the film and television industry within 12 months of graduation.</p>

<p>My daughter and I toured FSU's Film School last summer, and it is QUITE impressive...I wish I could go! Unfortunately, they only accept about 30 students each year (if I'm remembering correctly).</p>

<p>I heard that...in fact, one parent said it was harder than getting into med school, with something like a 1% admission rate. </p>

<p>Good luck to all who apply!</p>
