Affiliations
- ACT affords actors global connections through its partner schools:
New York Film Academy, offering our students enhanced educational value as well as opportunities to further their studies at any of NYFA’s U.S campuses (New York City, Los Angeles, and South Beach (Miami)). For students wishing to pursue degree studies internationally, the partnership provides a direct educational pathway, whereby students can transfer to NYFA, and earn their Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) in 4 semesters rather than the required 8. Upon completing the BFA, students are eligible to apply for MFA or MA programs. NYFA is a year-round school offering three academic semesters a year.
