<p>As a student from China, I totally understand the situation you’re in and what chances you have to take. And here’s my advice:
- Contact college officials, explain you circumstances and make sure that you can apply as freshmen.
- Look at schools other than those you’ve mentioned. I’d recommend Wesleyan University and Emerson College to you, along with NYU Tisch school of the arts and USC, regarding you interest in TV and film production.
- Get solid scores on you SAT and TOEFL. 2200/110 should be satisfactory.
- Try to use all your resources and get superb rec letters.
- Pray…! One can never be good enough to be sure that he’ll get into these wonderful schools…</p>
