The Film and Video Program invites you to apply to participate in a diverse community of film students. This community makes it easy to find others in your major and create, study, and work on projects together, as Film and Video projects often require groups of people to create together. This Learning Community is focused on the success of women in film and video production - all students regardless of gender are welcome and encouraged to apply.  Areas of interest would include cinematography and videography, editing, writing, directing, and/or producing; for fiction, non-fiction, and/or live event based productions.

Eligibility

  • Students majoring in Film and Video Studies
  • Students majoring in Film and Video Production

Residential Component

  • Optional. The location of learning community housing will be determined based on the incoming size and needs of the learning community. 
  • A signed housing contract is required to apply to this learning community. Once a housing contract is completed, you will indicate your learning community housing preference within the learning community application. Applications received by the priority deadline will be considered first. 
  • If you want to be placed with a preferred roommate and be admitted to a learning community with an optional residential component, both you and your roommate must apply (and be admitted) to a learning community with an optional residential component. Students admitted to learning communities with a required residential component cannot be paired with students admitted to learning communities with an optional residential component.
  • For specific question regarding learning communities, email learningcommunities@purdue.edu.  
  • Completing a housing contract is a separate process from applying to a learning community. If you have questions about housing, contact University Residences (https://www.housing.purdue.edu/) at housing@purdue.edu
