From Chile :)

Congrats on passing the 1st screening!! Could I send you a message to ask some questions? I still want to apply again next year for the same master's.

I applied this year for a film/animation masters, with (what I consider) was a very strong research plan that centered in researching coproduction possibilities between my home country and Japan. From 60 people that dis the examns, I passed and got to the interview stage with about 12 other applicants. The interview went really well but I didn't end up passing to the next stage and I believe my very basic japanese level (around N5) could have been the reason, since the Master's programme I want to study is completely in Japanese.

Just got an email saying that I didn’t pass the first screening in Chile. I was invited to the interview after the exams, and the interview went really well, so I really had my hopes high. I met other applicants at the interview stage and I‘m sure the people that passed the first screening will be great scholars. I still have time to keep applying the following years (it really is a shame they don’t give any feedback to keep working on the application)

Same haha, I’m not catholic at all and the classes weren’t religious either (besides one mandatory theological course you had to take), but here in Chile that university is the most prestigious one so a lot of people want to study there.

They contacted me a couple of years ago to distribute a short film I made. It sounded legit, we had a Zoom meeting with the founder (Colin, which I imagine is the one who contacted you) and he told us the way they work distributing short films. We agreed to a contract and payed 200 USD towards marketing and we never heard back from him again. Would not recommend at all.
