Want to take a course in Film, TV or Games but worried about the cost? Become a BAFTA Scholar.
Applications are now open for the BAFTA UK Scholarship Programme. If you're interested in a career in communications, this is an unmissable chance to get involved with one of the most prestigious names in film and TV.
The Programme, which is now in its fifth year, is part of BAFTA's charitable activity to support talented people at all stages of their career in film, television and games. It's open to British Citizens in need of financial assistance to take a post-graduate course in the UK.
About the Scholarships
Each BAFTA Scholar will receive up to £12,000 towards their annual course fees, as well as mentoring support from a BAFTA member, and free access to BAFTA events around the UK.
I feel having received a BAFTA scholarship has already helped me by putting me in contact with leaders in my chosen industry as well as making me stand out as someone BAFTA has faith in.
– Laura-Beth Cowley
BAFTA Scholar
For a fourth year, three students will each receive one of the Prince William Scholarships in Film, Television and Games, supported by BAFTA and Warner Bros., awarded in the name of HRH The Duke of Cambridge in his role as President of BAFTA. These recipients will have their fees funded by Warner Bros. and will additionally receive a short funded work placement within the Warner Bros. group of companies, access to a Warner Bros. mentor, and invitations to a series of industry masterclasses.
In return, scholarship recipients will share their learning experiences on BAFTA Guru, BAFTA's online learning channel, and take part in BAFTA's outreach to young people.
The deadline for applications is 17 June 2016, and you can apply via the website. If you've got any questions or would like to know more, you can email too.
