Scholarship + funding

Think Tank and WBD Access Canada are proud empower this cohort of Doers and Dreamers recipients with a $5,000CAD Scholarship towards Houdini-focused training.

This funding will be a starting point for five artists to push the envelope of 3D. It does not cover the full amount of tuition. If applying for the scholarship, please do so knowing that there is still a financial investment.

We are here to assist in tuition payment plans and information regarding Student Loans! Please reach out to us at info@tttc.ca if you want to discuss tuition and funding alongside of the scholarship!

If awarded the H-Class Scholarship you will still need to:

Meet Think Tank’s General Admissions Requirements, and must still complete a General Application for Houdini for Film or Games.
Have a meeting with our Admissions Team. Please contact sheena@tttc.ca to set this up! We suggest doing this ASAP!
Be ready to commit to this full-time, fully online program that starts February 10, 2025.

If you have any questions about this program, the scholarship or Canadian Student Loans, please email us at info@tttc.ca.
