Every student, every department

Film and media classes, of course. But also journalism, broadcasting, art and design, theater, photography, marketing, medical and science media, and any student who wants to tell a story with a camera. Anyone with your school’s email address can join, as many as you have.

4. Each year it renews, unless you cancel.

Questions schools ask

Who can join?

Anyone with an email address at your school’s domain: students and teachers in every department. There is no limit on how many people join.

Does each person need an account?

Yes. Each person creates a free account with their school email address. That keeps their progress, quizzes and certificates their own.

Some of our students don’t have a school email.

Write to us and we will help you add them.

How do you protect students’ privacy?

We only ask students for a name and an email address. Students who join with your school link are not added to our newsletter or marketing emails, and we do not sell or share student information. Students need to be 13 or older to create an account. For younger students, a teacher can play lessons for the class from their own account.

What about the printed magazine?

We’re bringing StudentFilmmakers Magazine back in print in 2027, and school licenses help make that happen. Printed issues will be mailed to schools with a license. Until then, everyone gets all 80 digital issues.

Can I cancel?

Yes, anytime, from your account page. Your school keeps access until the end of the year you paid for.

What is the 7-day money-back guarantee?

If the Academy is not right for your school, write to us within 7 days of buying and we will refund you in full.

Someone left our school. What do I do?

Open your school page and click Remove next to their name.

Can our school pay by purchase order or invoice?

Yes. Request a quote and we will send an invoice your school can pay.

What happens when the year is over?

The license renews at the same price. If it ends, Academy access through your school ends too. Anyone can join the Academy on their own at any time.
