Complete the AFI Scholarship Application
Financial need and scholarships are not factored into the AFI Conservatory admissions process, but all Fellows are eligible for internal funding. The average award for an AFI first-year Fellow is $10,000. Three full-ride scholarships are offered each academic year; 5 in 150 students have their tuition paid in full. And according to The Hollywood Reporter, in 2023, Canva partnered with the AFI Conservatory to provide $240,000 scholarships to six incoming Fellows.
