// Admission Requirements
Each applicant's educational background, work experience and general life experience will be examined by our admissions committee to determine whether the course of study at the Icelandic Film School is suitable for the applicant in question.All applicants for all departments should have completed secondary school or an equivalent degree. However, the school is authorized to admit applicants who haven't completed secondary school in cases where those students possess sufficient knowledge and/or experience considered as adequate preparation for beginning studies at the school.
The admissions committees consist of the dean of the school, department heads and industry professionals in the relevant field of study. New students are admitted twice a year, in both the fall and spring terms. The application deadline for the fall term is the 1st of June, and the deadline for the spring term is the middle of November.
The maximum number of students admitted into each class for each department is 12. It is school policy to strive toward an equal division of students according to gender.
