Admissions and Fees

Candidates should submit the completed application form, a non-refundable application fee of US$ 40 (or 30 Euro), names of two people who know your character and your work that we may contact, and 12 slides, photos, or a CD of your recent work. CE applicants may include an essay in place of slides, although slides are preferable.

There are no application deadlines, but the program is small and space is limited; we recommend that you apply early.
