Students can choose between studying fully Online or through Think Tank’s innovative Hybrid model. By studying Hybrid, students master both the fundamentals and advanced techniques of 3D Art remotely before heading to the Think Tank Campus in Vancouver, Canada, for an immersive, portfolio-focused final term.

While there are no entrance scholarships available, students are given opportunities to earn merit-based bursaries throughout their program. Personalized payment plans and financial aid counseling (Canadian applicants) are also available. Connect with a member of our Admissions Team today!
