Student Profile
Prague Film School is open to applicants of all ages, nationalities and backgrounds. Applicants are evaluated on the basis of merit, creative potential and the reasons they give they wish to study film.
Production experience is not a requisite for getting admitted, but of course welcome. Students applying to Prague Film School come from a wide-spectrum of backgrounds, from the professional filmmaker to the initiate.
Applicant Categories
Three basic categories of applicants are represented at Prague Film School:
1) An advanced group of students who may have already completed degree filmmaking programs back home and who have already made festival-level or professional film products.
2) Intermediate applicants who have significant production experience as autodidacts but who have received little to no formal training.
3) Students with film studies, art or humanities backgrounds who have not yet had any production experience but who have a history of interest in film.
Acceptance Notification
Students are notified about acceptance within 10 - 21 days from the designated application deadline. Students applying from non European or North American countries are encouraged to apply at least 4 months prior to the start of their desired programs to ensure student visas are issued in time.
Submitting Applications
All application materials can be submitted via Internet. Applicants are advised, however, to check by telephone to make sure that application was received.
Students applying to semester or year programs are requested to respond to two essay questions on the application form and to provide a sample creative portfolio. Semester and year students are also encouraged to provide two letters of recommendation.
