WQED's Film Academy is a youth education program in digital media arts and filmmaking. The Academy is open to 9th graders through 12th graders.
The cost of the program is $2,500 per student. This cost includes a "film at home" kit (valued at $600) that students will get to keep! Financial assistance is available due to the generous support from foundations and the Pittsburgh community. A $200 non-refundable deposit is due at the time of registration to secure a spot.
Financial assistance recipients are NOT required to provide a deposit, but confirmation via email or phone is necessary to claim the spot. The deposit will go towards the remaining balance that is due at the start of the session. Payment plans are available.
