Son is a want to be film major for next year. Do you know of any filmmakers scholarships? Film school is crazy expensive! Thanks
Look under film studies at scholarships dot com.
Here are a few more: https://www.backstage.com/magazine/article/film-school-college-scholarships-70695/
But…all those scholarships are highly competitive, tend to be relatively small amounts (when compared to $80K COA), and are non-renewable.
The vast majority of financial aid comes from the colleges themselves…financial aid includes need based aid and merit aid as well as loans, work study, pell grants.
Step one is to determine your annual college budget and communicate that to your S. Then, run the net price calculators (NPCs) at each school on the list to get an estimated COA. Will you qualify for need based financial aid? Does your S have high grades/test scores/strong film portfolio? What schools are on the list so far?
