MM in Screen Scoring at USC Graduate School for Non-Music Student

Hi everyone,

I’m wondering if you guys know anyone who got admitted in USC’s Screen Scoring Graduate School even if they do not have a Bachelor’s degree in Music? I am very much willing to get myself into film scoring graduate school despite having a Bachelor’s degree in a different field (I was forced to take the science route but I’m following my real dream now). I am trying to prepare my graduate school application for USC, UCLA, and NYU. Would appreciate anyone who can give me good advice for this. So far, my only experience with these schools is the NYU film scoring summer program that gave me a merit scholarship. I was the only non-music major student during that program.

Would be interested to know your thoughts about the process especially for USC since I am interested in USC the most as of the moment since I also already have accommodations in LA.
