Your Student’s Talent Stands Out — and So Does Your Support!
Your student has been recognized for their exceptional talent in film, media, or the performing arts — and has received an event callback from NYFA. This is an exciting opportunity, and we’re here to guide your family through the next steps, including the application, creative portfolio and audition process.
Congratulations to you, too!
This event callback is not only a reflection of your student’s creativity and hard work, but also of the encouragement and support you’ve provided along the way. You’ve helped them reach this point; now let us help you both navigate what’s next.
A Big Decision & A Big Opportunity
We know that choosing a college (especially in the arts) is a major family decision. That’s why we’ve created this page just for parents, guardians, and supporters of NYFA Callback recipients.
Our goal is to make the next steps straightforward and the process as smooth as possible. You’ll find helpful links and answers to common questions as your student begins the college application process on their path toward a creative education at NYFA.
We’ve helped thousands of families take this leap—including the loved ones of students from families like Steven Spielberg, Martin Scorsese, Bruce Springsteen, Al Pacino, Robert Downey Jr., Jamie Foxx, Jodie Foster, Kevin Kline, Pierce Brosnan, Susan Sarandon, Damon Wayans, Bono, Clint Eastwood, and Lin-Manuel Miranda.
