Education for the screenwriter...

 

Enhancing your screenwriting skills
There are many BFA and MFA screenwriting programs across the United States . It's hard to know which courses are the best, and it probably depends more on your personal taste and willingness to work hard more than anything else. Of course, a great place to learn about screenwriting is UCLA, because it carries so much cache, but that doesn't mean you can't become a top flight screenwriter at say Temple University in Philadelphia . Don't rely on our examples. There are hundreds of colleges and universities offering courses in screenwriting.
