San Francisco School of the Arts (Sota)?

Question

How many people apply for the Creative Writing department? I know they're extremely selective, and there are only about 8-10 spots each year.

Answer 1

i tried to get in this this year in march and i didn't made it it is very hard but it was my first time. in that audition we were 18 and they were 2 spots. next year i will try again, everyone says that no one gets it the first time and that was my first time.

Answer 2

My contacts tell me that Sota is overwhelmed with applications for the Creative Writing Department.  You need to make your own application as unique and compelling as possible.  For example, have you had anything published such as a short story?  If so, make it a showcase portion of your application which will demonstrate your potential to be a star student.
