Financial support is available to qualified candidates in the form of University Fellowships and Scholarships. These awards are competitive and based on recommendations by the faculty. Students who have not received significant funding from fellowships or awards are eligible for paid Teaching or Lab Assistantships, Production and Research Grants.

Bolstered by one of the largest undergraduate film programs in Canada, MHSoC offers ample opportunity for teaching experience. Teaching Assistantships provide graduate students with training in teaching a wide variety of courses and studio practices. In addition, the School reserves a limited number of courses to be taught, or co-taught, by graduate students. These are generally given to students in their third year of study on a competitive basis. Graduate students who receive teaching assignments are paid in accordance with the University Part-Time Faculty Association Collective Agreement.
