"If documentaries are your thing, there’s hardly a better place than Stanford" - TheWrap

TheWrap has published it's list of Top 50 Film Schools for 2023, with Stanford ranking 15th overall. The report notes that "if documentaries are your thing, there’s hardly a better place than Stanford":

Every student is fully funded (including a housing stipend, which is about $12.5K this year) and makes three shorts their first year and one longer, 20-minute doc in the second year. Because of the small size, everyone’s a jack-of-all-trades, shooting, editing, producing, serving as crew. Notable alumni include Elizabeth Lo (“Stray”), Reid Davenport (“I Didn’t See You There”) and David Alvarado and Jason Sussberg (“Bill Nye: Science Guy”). Keep a lookout for recent grads Paloma Martinez, Elivia Shaw, Aurora Brachman, Michael Workman and Adrian Burrell, who all won major awards for their student films.
