Scholarships

International Screen Institute Scholarships

Do you want to apply for an International Screen Institute Scholarship? Financial support from the International Screen Institute is usually up to 50% off the regular fee. In exceptional cases, the discount may be raised. 

If you can give us a good reason that you are in need of financial assistance and your national screen agency does not fund training in principle, please contact us before submitting your application to discuss whether you can apply for financial support. We have very limited funds available for a limited number of participants in genuine need.

For working parents who have childcare responsibilities, we have a childcare bursary available and a bursary for participants who need extra assistance due to disability or impairment.

Financial Support Guide

We actively encourage participants to research and apply for financial support with your national/regional funding bodies first, who may have bursaries and grants to cover training and professional development. We are currently reviewing all the national funds available in Europe. Thank you to the MEDIA Desks for their help in assembling this information.
