Work Study

We are committed to making our classes accessible year round to the broadest possible audience. To this end, we offer a Work Study program so that a limited number of students can earn volunteer hours each semester that can be applied as a discount credit against the cost of tuition for 8-week classes. Volunteer hours must be completed the semester before credit can be applied to a class. Call Sam Laffey at 412.365.2145 x208 for details.

Summer Intensive Scholarship

We offer half tuition scholarships to make our summer intensive classes accessible to everyone. To apply submit completed summer class registration form that indicates what class you would like to attend (indicate second and third choices), five digital images of your work and a description sheet, short essay describing why you wish to take the class and a $40 registration fee.
