World Studio Foundation Scholarship

Daring Young Artists to Dream. Imagine you had everything you needed to share your vision with the world: talent, skill, dedication, desire. Everything, that is, except money.

Each year, Worldstudio AIGA Scholarships receives hundreds of applications from young people in this very predicament – desperate to influence the world with their amazing talents but without the financial means to do so. Fortunately, with the support of generous individuals, organizations and corporations, Worldstudio AIGA Scholarships allow young people from minority and economically disadvantaged backgrounds not only to realize their artistic dreams, but also to give back to their communities.

Qualifications:

  • Applicants must be citizens of the United States or be in possession of a Green Card (formally known as a Permanent Resident Card or Form I-551)
  • Applicants must be pursuing an undergraduate or graduate degree in Fine Arts, Animation, Fashion Design, Graphic Design, Interior Design or Photography and plan to enter a career in the creative professions.
  • Applicants must be matriculated (or planning to matriculate) at accredited colleges and universities in the United States for the Fall 2008/Spring 2009 academic year and intend on maintaining full-time status for the entire year.
  • Incoming students who have yet to enroll must submit proof of acceptance from school of choice.
  • Though not a requirement, minority status is a significant factor considered in jury decisions.
  • Students must have at least a 2.0 GPA.
