I wanted to know what is the name of the program and what is its duration and i come from India so can you tell do they allow international students in their course and if possible can you give me the website link of this course because I couldn't find it.

    Hey great video since there was no other person who talked about Yale's undergrad film programs. I have a question, as you know top film schools like USC or NYU have different acceptance rates due to their highly selective film programs with 3% for USC and 10% for NYU (compared to their normal rates of 16% and 21%). Yale has 7% overall acceptance, I am thinking of applying Yale, do you think it would be as highly selective to enter Yale's film program? Or is it appear to be more "easier" (ex. 10% above) if I apply to specifically Yale's film as they are not as much competitive?

      Yale doesn't require you to enter with a specific major in mind so I wouldn't say there's a different acceptance rate for the film program specifically. Submitting a film supplement is optional and most applicants don't have a creative supplement so in that regard I think the types of films they see in applications are probably a bit lower caliber than the film schools or just different types (documentaries, investigative research films, commercials, etc rather than ambitious narrative films). Basically, if you get into Yale you can study film - there's no separate application process.

      @@MollywoodFilms do you think applying to Yale and expressing your commitment and interest in pursuing the film program could better your chances? When you apply to Yale as a film major, would your GPA still be a huge factor? (if your extracurriculars, portfolio are better since film schools normally dont put too much emphasis on GPA)

    Hey there. Great video! it helped me a lot. I have a question, do you think that the production courses throughout all 4/3 years at film major are about filming with an iPhone and are very basic? I am more interested in directing and the process of the production itself. OR do you think that Yale is better at the theoretical and historical domains than the practical?
    thanks a lot

      Hey! I would definitely say the upper level courses are more advanced and would allow you to make films that could be competitive in festivals - However it will still not be to the level of a film school with a full crew and industry standard equipment. I think in the film major they are considered better at the study of film and theoretical film but production classes do go up in level and the writing classes are amazing.
