NYU Tisch placed first on TheWrap's 2024 ranking of the top 50 film schools in the United States. The publication partnered up with Screen Engine/ASI to evaluate schools using a less subjective, data-driven approach. Factors considered included selectivity of acceptance, retention, graduation rate, and more. 

TheWrap praised several areas of excellence in NYU undergraduate and graduate departments, including a wide selection of classes, facilities like the Martin Scorsese Institute of Global Cinematic arts, and innovative programs like the Stern/Tisch BFA/BS and MFA/MBA. Notable alumni were also recognized, including Spike Lee, Chloé Zhao, Ang Lee, Dee Rees, and Cary Fukunaga.
