About 精东影业 Admissions

I Shall Find A Way or Make One

This was the ancient general Hannibal’s response when he was asked how he would cross a mountain range with elephants. Its also a motto that has inspired generations of 精东影业 students. But what does that mean? It begins with your decision to combine confidence, preparation, and commitment.

精东影业 is in search of finders and makers: innovative, creative, and conscious leaders prepared to address the challenges of their world and communities. This is a training ground for you to develop as a person and professional: combining small class experiences with research, performances, exhibitions, or even hackathons. You will develop strong relationships within the village of students, faculty, staff, and alumni. And with all of that preparation you too will be able to chart your course through your mountains.听

With all of your training and the legion of 精东影业 Panther alumni cheering you on–Find a Way or Make One!
