Hey everyone,

I'm going for a PhD in Visual Studies/ Film and I was trying to figure out the rankings for these programs. However the USNews doesn't seem to offer any kind of guidance, so for those of you out there going for the same thing, how do you rank the quality of your program?

are you talking about film theory/history? or actual filmmaking?

generally, with all things film related, both production, as well as theory/history nyu, usc and ucla tend to be top 3 in the country, all with very similar programs.

You know that's a pretty difficult thing to rank, but I can tell you what schools I applied to based on advice from faculty from many institutions:

U of Chicago

Yale

UC Berkeley

Iowa

UW Madison

NYU

USC

UCLA

Northwestern

Columbia

There are several other top notch institutions, these were mostly just geared toward my interests so there may be several other that could be suggested.
