Life as an international student
ESRA’s reputation as one of Europe’s leading film schools means that students travel from far and wide to study here. Therefore, the School is home to a diverse and international student body.
Since English is the world’s second most widely-spoken language, the school runs several English-taught programs to meet the educational needs of its international students. This means that all students can develop a solid understanding of filmmaking, even if they don’t speak French, German, or Dutch.
Although housing isn’t offered on-campus, each school has a dedicated office to help international students find appropriate accommodation.

Fees and funding
Funding
If an ESRA International program is fully enrolled (20 to 30 students per class), a few scholarships will be offered to students to cover part of their tuition fees (an average of 15%), on the basis of merit and of financial need. Only applicants who have sent a full application will be considered for the scholarships, which are only for students who cannot, even with the financial assistance of their parents or guardians, afford to pay full tuition. Scholarships cover school tuition, not accommodation or travel expenses, which students must be able to cover.
Fee information
- Undergraduate tuition: €11,500 per year
