About the application process
The application is first-come-first-serve, and we review the applications as they are submitted. In the event of a successful application to the course, you will receive an acceptance letter within 1-2 weeks after applying. When the course is full, we will have to reject your application even though you meet the admission criteria.

The application form
In order to access the application form, you will be asked to sign in. In order to do that, you need to create your own password on the log on page.
We are using a standard form for all VIA summer schools. The specific course name is not mentioned, it will simply say “VIA summer school”. This is one of several VIA summer schools, so you need to write that your first priority is this course.
It lists another contact e-mail. Mails written to that will be forwarded, but for the sake of efficiency, it is better to write directly to PRS@via.dk if you have questions about the course or the application process.
You will be asked to choose between certain options about you educational status or background. Because we are using a standard template, some participants can be qualified for instance though professional experience, but do not find the suitable option in the menu. In that case, please just choose a random one and make sure that it is explained in your CV what your actual background is.
Please note
The Animation Workshop, VIA University College (TAW) reserves the right to cancel the course should there not be enough participants.
