INDIGENOUS STUDENTS
Indigenous students can receive up to 100% non-repayable financial support to study Film Production, Screenwriting, 3D Animation, Visual Effects, Documentary, or Graphic Design in Vancouver, Canada.
InFocus Film School’s dedication to inclusive education includes supporting First Nations, Métis, and Inuit students in reaching their artistic and career goals in the creative industry. We are here to help you navigate and access support programs that lower the barrier to quality education.
Eligible students accepted into these programs can have their film school tuition subsidized up to 100%.
There are many routes and funding opportunities for Indigenous students to access a film education. For further information or guidance, contact our Admissions team.
BAND FUNDING
If you are a First Nations band member, your band may offer scholarships, bursaries, or other funding options that will partially or even fully cover your tuition. Each band will have its own application process to access these funds and may have deadlines or timelines for when you can apply.
Contact your band’s post-secondary funding administrator for details on the application requirements they have. Our admissions advisors are here to assist you with any questions or documents you may need.
SCHOLARSHIPS AND OTHER FUNDING
If you are Inuit, Metis, or non-status, there are options available to you as well. Many sources of external funding and financial support exist for all indigenous students offered by government and non-profits across Canada. You can use the Indigenous Services Canada Indigenous Bursaries Search Tool to find bursaries and scholarships that apply to you.
