The #GreatBrightWay Scholarship seeks to award Black, Indigenous, or other people of color; people with disabilities; and transgender & non-binary persons.

Submissions for Actor Therapy’s #GreatBrightWay Scholarship are open on a rolling basis. This merit-based award grants a fully-funded 5-week session of our signature Actor Therapy Class to prospective or returning Actor Therapy students.

PLEASE NOTE: THE #GBW SCHOLARSHIP IS SEPARATE FROM THE MERIT-BASED SCHOLARSHIPS FOR OUR SUMMER/WINTER INTENSIVE PROGRAMS; FOR INFORMATION ABOUT HOW TO APPLY FOR THE INTENSIVES/INTENSIVE SCHOLARSHIPS, CLICK HERE.

Who may apply? 

  • Black, Indigenous, or other people of color; people with disabilities; and transgender & non-binary persons.

  • Returning Actor Therapy students who identify with one of those groups

  • A student may win the award only once, so prior recipients of the Scholarship are not eligible.

How do I apply? 

  • Fill out the brief application form below. 

  • Include up to three video links (or link to a page on your website) of you performing a cut in any musical style, any length. 

What is the time frame to apply, and when are the scholarships given? 

  • Applications are accepted on a rolling basis throughout the year. We will regularly pull from the collected submissions before each session.  

  • Students will be notified approximately 1-3 weeks before each new session begins if they are offered a scholarship.

  • We expect to grant 3-5 scholarships per session. 

  • If you’ve submitted but not received a scholarship, you may submit again after one year.
