Any Film, Media, Visual Studies MA program recommendations?

[elguz]

Hi all!

I am in my last year of my undergraduate and am majoring in Film and Screen Studies (minoring in Critical Race and Ethnicity Studies and Urban Studies). Right now I am feeling pretty lost in searching for a masters program. I was interested in Columbia at first but have read that a lot of classes are undergrad and it is not very contemporary. 

I was wondering if anyone would like to share their experiences they have had in a similar program/if anyone has recommendations. A lot of film programs are MFA and production based whereas I am more interested in the studies/theory aspect of it. 

I had initially wanted to stay in the same location (NYC) but it seems that the only two options are Columbia and NYU (which both known for their lack of funding). 

I am open to anything and would love to hear your experiences!
