I've just applied to both UCLA's and Chapman's Graduate Film Program. I know that UCLA supposedly has around a 10% acceptance rate. Does anyone know what Chapman's rate is? Also, when do these film schools typically notify applicants whether or not they got in?

I am currently a first year grad student at Chapman University. I believe when I applied there were 1000 applicants and only around 65 were admitted. I believe after the completion of the Marion Knotts studio the number in applicants seem to be going up. We have faculty and professionals from AFI and USC. Since being here... I have been on 3 shorts (two $20,000 and one $10,000) during my first semester. Although I am still learning and tired at times because of the work it is a very good school.

If you have any questions feel free to email me.
Best,
Jeff

Hey Jeff, Is it possible for you to give us the stats on your like gpa, portfolio, work experience, etc, etc. I applied to Chapman and am eager to know where i stand...

UCLA, most of them, actually, notify in April, according to their websites.

Has anyone been chosen for an interview for the MFA program at UCLA? Mine's on March 24th, I am so nervous!!
