Funding for NFTS

Hey shooters!

Quick question for the community: does anyone know of any funding sources for MA studies? I recently got into the directing fiction program at NFTS and, although I am ecstatic to have the opportunity, I am struggling to secure financing! The school itself offers scholarships only to British citizens so I am sadly ineligible as an Irish/Canadian (as I am for a postgraduate loan).

If anyone has information about potential funding sources, I would really appreciate it!

Cheers

This site contains a lot of links, including to the UK post-graduate loans scheme: https://www.gov.uk/funding-for-postgraduate-study . According to the details on the site, you should be eligible for the loan scheme if you are normally resident in England (different schemes exist in Scotland, Wales and NI) and you’re a UK national or Irish citizen or have settled status under the EU Settlement Scheme or indefinite leave to remain so there are no restrictions on how long you can stay. I'd say that the majority of students on UK masters programmes access this loan scheme.

Good luck
