<p>Thank you for reaching out, LC! I’m glad to hear you were so impressed with Dodge. We appreciate you sharing your thoughts. The hands-on aspect is particularly important to D. After spending much of her high school career jumping through all those mandatory academic hoops, she is eager to do some stuff she likes for a change! We are from VA, and D has applied to 9 film or film-related schools. So far, she’s been accepted at Dodge (film production) , LMU (though not for film), UT Austin (school of RTF), and UNC Wilmington. She has not yet heard back from USC, NYU, Vassar, Boston U and SUNY Purchase.</p>
<p>I will certainly PM you if D decides on Dodge (very likely). She too is looking forward to being in CA and plans to see it all. Chapman’s in such a prime location, not only in regard to climate and proximity to LA, but also beaches, mountains, islands and deserts! She is even giddy about the Disneyland thing and was thrilled to read that the nightly fireworks are visible from some of the dorm windows at Chapman. College is definitely the perfect chance to experience another area of the country.</p>
<p>Much luck with the remaining months of HS, and with your college selection process!</p>
