Question by codecrypter: Do you know any east coast colleges and universities with film AND marketing programs?
So, I’m about to apply to schools over the next few months, and I’ve been having trouble finding schools to apply to that have both a film (production focus, not film studies, like Gender in Modern Film for example) and marketing (or a strong business department for that matter) located in the east coast. I plan on doing a double major in the two, and want to take those two majors to enter some sort of “new media” career.
So far, I’ve found schools such as; New York University, Boston University, American University, Fairfield University, Colombia University, and Champlain College.
I was wondering if there are any schools that you guys think I should check out before I start applying. My grades are fairly high (4.1 GPA including AP’s).
Also, if you think it is necessary, feel free to add a few schools that may not be on the East Coast, but would be a good idea to look at (such as UCLA).
Thanks!
And for bonus points: When going for a double major, would I be able to get a MFA (Master of Fine Arts) in Film at the same time that I’m taking classes to get a undergrad degree in Marketing?
