<p>It is my understanding over the years the USC School of Cinematic Arts is looking for students with fine grades and scores who are able to succeed in college classes. However, there are other qualities they hope to find in an applicant such as originality, creativity, imaginative, ingenious, visionary, inventive and insightful. It has been posted here the ability to express your own passion and “tell a story” appear to be important in the selection process.</p>
<p>Good luck.</p>
