Congratulations, man!

Ummm...can i ask a question? I'm actually hoping to apply to that exact course, among other Screenwriting MFAs. What did you have to show them in terms of experience, portfolio, etc.?


  • Grade-point average (calculated from submitted transcripts)

  • Graduate Record Examination (GRE) scores, and for international students, also Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) scores

  • Autobiographical character sketch (2 page max)

  • Most emotional moment (2 page max)

  • Creative challenges (Part A & B) 5 pages ea., a 'stuck in elevator scene' and a scene in which one character wishes to go out and another wishes the first to stay inside.

  • Writing samples (30 pages?)

  • Portfolio list

  • Letters of recommendations

  • As well as a standard application materials. I think it helps that I was able to submit a _very_ long portfolio list, resume, and related cinema experience.
