Hey Guys! I just got my ED acceptance to LMU! I’m super excited. I’m interested to know everyone else applying to LMU, let’s leave our application stats and major!
LMU Major: Theater Arts - College of Communication and Fine Arts
ECs: I had a lot, but I think the main ones that stood out were charity for 3 years in Africa, Red Cross Blood Drive donor for 3 years, and touring high schools in the US to promote staying in school and stop bullying. Can’t wait to meet the rest of you guys and see y’all next year!
Hey, so I applied for Early Decision for the animation program, but was deferred. I’m really upset about it, and I have no idea how competitive the animation program is and what to expect. I’m 99% I was deferred because I applied for animation, since my GPA unweighted is a 4.05, and my SAT is a 1230. Any thoughts?
LMU’s film and animation departments are some of their toughest majors to get into. When we were on the campus tour they something like 20% admittance rates. I’m not sure how you get a 4.05 unweighted GPA…on what scale? Not to be mean, but 1230 on the SAT is OK but not great. More than anything though since it’s animation I’m sure they are looking at your projects and your extracurriculars. Look on the bright side you were deferred, not rejected…right?
I got in! Put my major as undecided on the common app but mentioned marketing/advertising because of my love for film making and graphic design. Also interested in environmental science. They accepted me into the school of business though.
Act: 27
GPA: 3.52
