 fegulPremium join:2004-08-23 united state kudos:1 | Opinions on Loyola Marymount University I was accepted to Loyola, and while I'm waiting on responses from the other colleges I applied to, I want to know more about what its really like.
I dont always believe what is on the sites of some of these colleges, because its all biased anyways, and I was looking for some honest feedback.
I want to go into film, and I know that Loyola has a good film program, but I dont know much about the campus.
Is there anything I should know about it before making my decisions? (I'm not going to say yes just yet, I have 4-5 other colleges I want to hear from too)
Thanks! -- |Networking Help|My Blog|Fegul.com| |

but you might be too close to home |

USC was my first choice a couple years back, but its expensive, and its a BIG school. I dont want to go to a really big school, I kind of like the smaller campuses.

 SunsetstripGo KingsPremium,MVM join:2000-07-08 West Hollywood, CA | Hey fegul what do you want to do in the business ? if you want to make film perhaps the LA Film School might be a better choice to focus on the vocation with out all the college study,CalArts also has a nice film program.
Myself I got a two year degree with out all the matriculation,I focused on just cinema classes.
I have/had a friend(have lost contact with him) that went to Loyola and has been steadily employed first at CBS,then Fox,and since I last talked to him at Universal.He liked the school very much
One thing that you need to know and probably already do is that LA is very expensive to live.Loyola is located near Westchester pretty close to the beach.Most of the housing in the area is upper middle class but you could find apartments in nearby Culver City or the Palms area.
CalArts is located north of Los Angeles(30 minutes) -- My Photo Gallery "Consulting the rules of composition before taking a photograph, is like consulting the laws of gravity before going for a walk." Edward Weston |
