Optional Los Angeles Quarter

Students may apply to participate in the Los Angeles Quarter Program for the spring of their second year; they will spend twelve weeks in Hollywood doing industry internships, living with their fellow DePaul classmates, and having twice-weekly classes on an industry lot where they will have intimate question and answer sessions with industry professionals in all aspects of the film, TV, and videogame world. If selected to participate in the LA program, MS in Film and Television - Editing students would take SCWR 446 and FILM 499 in Los Angeles.

MS in Film and Television - Editing students who are not selected to participate in the LA program, would take FILM 499 in Chicago and one (1) Major Elective. Alternatively, students can instead take two (2) Major Electives.
