Looking for a "Perfect Fit"

Did you look at the portfolio requirements before deciding against Tisch?? Tisch is not looking for people who already know how to create films – they are looking for people who know how to tell stories. You don’t even need to submit a film! They will teach filmmaking; they want to admit intelligent, creative students!

Tisch is a school of the arts – it wants its students not only to be technicians and craftspeople, but artists who tell stories, learn about art in the world, and have a confidence in developing their own creative vision.

You should also know, before you say NYU is “below you” that quite a few people at Tisch turn down Ivies and other more highly “ranked” schools to attend their programs. My daughter attended Tisch (drama) and is not a big partier – especially not with drugs – and most of her friends worked to make money and / or were on tight budgets. So, the generalizations are really unfair.
