Your real odds

A scored panel evaluates every application within each intake window, and the annual funding cap means you are competing against others in the same window, not a fixed acceptance rate.

Acceptance rates and total award numbers are not disclosed, but the $70,000 lifetime cap per company points to a program built for focused, smaller applicants rather than established studios.

Worth knowing

Any expense you pay before submitting your application is ineligible, so hold off on paying writers or producers until after you apply, and note that the three funding stages, pre-development at $15,000, first draft at $25,000, and final draft at $15,000, let you return in later windows as the project advances.
