HOW TO GET INTO NYU FILM SCHOOL *Tips From an Alum*

Tips from a NYU grad on how to improve your application to get into NYU Tisch School of the Arts for Film & Television Production (undergrad)! In this video I discuss FIVE TIPS which include specific strategies to increase your chance of acceptance, and advice for the Tisch supplement (short film and written portion).

Since it’s common knowledge that NYU wants very good grades, high test scores, and a standout common app, I decided to focus more on the supplement rather than general college admissions advice. Yes, NYU wants good grades and to see that you’re doing extracurricular activities, but that’s not everything, especially when it comes to majoring in the arts.  
 
Please note that I’M NOT FROM ADMISSIONS. This video will not guarantee you entry into NYU. My goal is to simply help you increase your chance of acceptance and make you aware of certain elements that could help you get in. I know how stressful the college application process is, and I want to help. :)

Thank you. I’m only 13 but I really love film and NYU film school sounds amazing to me.

[TakeBrett]

Great tips! And I love how you speak so positively on everything! It’s so easy to get bogged down and overly stressed during application time. Fantastic job with keeping things optimistic!

This was so incredibly helpful, as a high school junior struggling with her portfolio I feel a sense of direction. Thank you!

[MariNate]

Making mine tomorrow. Thanks for this, I’m just going with a personal story documentary about me overcoming obstacles in life. It’s for my postgrad though.

I’m brazilian, and as an exchange student, i’m so nervous about my application and my portfolio and everything because getting into NYU it’s my dream, and your video couldn't be more helpful, thank you so so so so so much!!!

[kekeshavion]

Thanks so much. It was an honored for me to watch this amazing video💕. NYU TISCH (New York University) is my dream college I want to go and plus I always wanted to major in film, Filmmaking is a passion of mines, I want to create visions and make wonderful things happen! As someone who wants to be a filmmaker I enjoyed watching this video💚. Thanks so much! This really helped me. I wanna start making short films now but I don't have the tools😭💯This really gave me Alot of ideas about the direction I'm gonna take as an film major. Watching this to gained experience.

Can you make a video talking about the costs of NYU? Like tuition, living costs, etc?

[mattchu_chow]

I have decent grades I don’t know if they’re high enough to get into a film school.

Hi Nadia! I appreciate how helpful this and many other videos you've made are. I just skimmed through your channel and noticed that you do not want to focus your channel on film school videos, which is absolutely understandable; however, as a struggling human being with hopes and dreams of making great films, I just can't help writing out asking for advice (of course, if you're not responding to advice comments at the moment, I understand and maybe some other user reading me can help out). I'm almost 23 years old and have 2 years of studying Law at a University here in Peru, but am very unhappy and this is not the path I want my life to take. I have recently seen the opportunity of moving to NYC. I grew up in NYC, but completed High School in Peru. I'm ready to leave it all behind and start everything from scratch. I heard: we should always go for the option that scares us the most, but what's really scary is that I simply have no idea of what my chances are of getting into NYU Film School seeing that SAT/GPA are not something we work with here in Peru and it's been a long time since I finished High School. With this background, what are the options I have of getting in? I just barely started investigating about this and your video is the first thing I saw and I'll be sure to read around non-stop to inform myself as much as possible, but any advice coming from you would be much appreciated. Thank youuu! (Also: NYU is a bit pricey... so what could my options be for obtaining a scholarship?)

Hi i just found out about you and film really has my interests and nyu is my dream school and i just wanna say that it sooo sweet how you offered at the end to look at the application videos of your community :(

I too someday might be in film production <3 a dream

[yanetteame]

I'm 13 and would LOVE to be a film student anywhere honestly! thanks for this video :)

Nadia, my mom's name is nydia, so I subscribe! thanks for the valueble Information by the way!

Hi! Love your videos, they have helped a lot. Regarding the NYU HS program over the summer if I wasn’t able to apply in time do you think I should still do another summer program for high school students like NYFA?

[MadChristoph]

Got rejected from NYU Film, going to George Mason for FAVS (Film and Video Studies) in the Fall of 2022, will try again for a Master's at NYU or American

[talayehosseini]

Thank you so much, it was amazing
But does NYU give full scholarship to students, specially for international students ?

[mosscrepe]

I think I want to get in this programme soon!😍

[marialinguist]

Nice video! I just subscribe. I like your advice to be original and have passion. I have no experience in filmmaking and producing and have worked for 6 months in marketing after getting my B.A. I am interested in the filmmaking certificate. I want to make films haha. Is it enough to get a head start? I also looked into NY film Academy, but Tisch seems more credible.
