Entry requirements

Any student in good standing in a UC graduate degree program qualifies. Students who are not enrolled in another UC graduate program but who hold a bachelor's degree may also apply. Applications are reviewed by the Graduate Program Director in Film and Media Studies and consist of: (1) a statement of purpose, (2) transcripts, and (3) either a letter of support from the student's graduate program director (for students already enrolled in a UC graduate program) or (for external applicants) a letter of recommendation that speaks to the applicant's potential for success in the Film and Media Studies graduate certificate program.

Tuition is charged per credit, so the total depends on the modules you register for each year. Current fees are listed in the official fee schedule.

Graduate applications: programmes set their own deadlines and decision schedules. Most programmes use the UC Graduate Admissions Application; Nursing uses NursingCAS, Occupational Therapy OTCAS, Physical Therapy PTCAS, Athletic Training ATCAS, Audiology and Speech-Language Pathology CSDCAS, and Public Health SOPHAS.
