Apply to the B.A. Cinema Arts Program

Application Process

Academic admittance: Apply to Point Park (if you have not already applied). Complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (Point Park's school code is 003357) to qualify for financial aid. Full financial aid awards will be sent upon academic and artistic admittance. 

Please note: A portfolio is not required for admittance into the B.A. cinema arts with a focus in animation, cinema or screenwriting.  

The Department of Cinema Arts has rolling admissions; however, space is limited and we strongly encourage applicants to submit materials before February 1, 2025. 

Transfer Applicants

All of our programs in the cinema arts department are sequential and demanding, and therefore we require all students — including transfer students — to complete all four years of our program.

Transfer credits for cinema arts-related courses will be considered on a case-by-case basis, only if the student has earned a B or better for the course, and the course meets with faculty approval (based on review of the previous institution’s syllabi and course descriptions).
