Congratulations 2024-2025 Scholarship Recipients!

Cinematic Arts Scholarship Recipients 2024-2025

Each year, as a result of our generous College of the Arts and Cinematic Arts donors, we award scholarships to a group of our student filmmakers for the upcoming fall and spring semester. We are fortunate to have the support of individuals and organizations such as The Golden Globe Foundation, Fine Arts Affiliates, Dramatic Allied Arts Guild, and individual donors. Please join us in celebrating and congratulating our 2024-2025 scholarship recipients!
