Last Year of a Turkish Fulbright Student in MFA/Acting Program at CalArts

Expiration: August 15, 2020

I am a Turkish Fulbright student currently studying my second year at California Institute of the Arts (CalArts) for my MFA (Master of Fine Arts - consists of 3 years of education) degree in Acting/Theater by the curtesy of Fulbright Grant. I was granted in 2018 by the Turkish Fulbright Commission and hopefully graduating in May 2021. Fulbright covers only the first two (2) years of master programs in the US. However, my MFA program requires 3 years of education, therefore, I am on my own for my last (third) year. So I will need financial support in order to complete my MFA degree and to be able to work and teach in my field.
I was granted a merit-based scholarship by CalArts called "Lilian Disney Scholarship Award" which covers almost the half of my tuition. However, for the rest of my tuition as well as my living expenses as a student (room rent, grocery, book&supplies, etc) I will need financial support.
My focus on acting is the voice and speech methods in acting education as well as approaches in acting education with other technical classes such as Alexander Technique, Linklater, Barrantes Voice System. More details about these as well as my study objective, my acting resume and personal statements will be shared upon private request.

Meals Accomodation

Expiration: April 1, 2020

logic over emotions cinema/feed scheme is a motivational movement vested with the task of addressing poverty and hunger endure by self-sponsored students within the University of Eswatini. This will be made possible through 50% of profits generated on the cinema to provide these students with a daily meal accommodation. Our strategy is to run a cinema which will screen the latest, motivational and educational movies to every full-time student in our university every Friday when the weekly academic business comes to an end. Our inspiration for this project has been to cater for students who endure high academic demands to a rehabilitation and refreshing platform through a movie treat on a social network.

As students of law in the university of Eswatini and aspiring lawyers, legal scholars and members of the judiciary we are faced with an immerse problem as we not part of the governments priority for scholarship and thus we are self-sponsored. Law is the only full-time course which is not funded by our government and as a result much to our struggle is the absence of food, books, personal allowance and tuition fee among other things we therefore encounter difficulty in producing quality results as a of an unfavorable learning environment resulting in poor academic performance. The law requires constant reading as habit and developing such a habit is a hassle on an empty stomach. We therefore seek to curb hunger in our faculty.

We pride ourselves as social entrepreneurs and on this notion it has been our greatest desire to dedicate 50% of our profits towards the aid of underprivileged self-sponsored students through meals. This been our long term goal has been conceived through the immerse problem of hunger amongst these students. As a self-sponsored student I can attest that it is very difficult to study on an empty stomach and much of our poor performance emanate from hunger. This provision will be made possible if we persist in selling out our tickets for movie nights every time we screen.
