<p>if i went to ucla, i would be going to be a film major. i've heard from some friends and even some people online that the ucla film department isn't all that great anymore. can anyone--who's actually in the film major right now--assess the validity of these rumors? what is the film major like at ucla? thanks for any info!</p>
<p>Note that UCLA does not admit film majors at the freshmen level. You take pre-req courses in your first two years and apply in your 2nd year. </p>
<p>I have only HEARD things about the film major, stuff about how it is more of an emphasis on writing than production/direction. Take that with a grain of salt, though. Good luck.</p>
