Why Choose ARC Academy?
ARC Academy is a leading educational institution specializing in preparing professionals for the gaming and creative industries. The programs are both theoretical and practical, developed in collaboration with leading video game studios. The lecturers at the Academy have extensive experience and are actively working in national and international companies.
We have responded to the need for remote learning as many talents showed interest in our programs but were unable to relocate to Bulgaria.
In the final semester, Game Lab, students from all programs join forces to create a video game, simulating the process in indie studios. This project develops their technical skills, teamwork, and problem-solving abilities, preparing students for the real working environment.
ARC Academy is a place where students gain valuable knowledge and skills, build new connections, and create their portfolios. Upon graduation, they receive a certificate recognized by our partners and a Professional Qualification Certificate from the Ministry of Education and Science, giving them confidence in their chosen field. Over 80% of our successful graduates start their careers in the gaming and creative industries.
Funding Opportunities
Our partners, the America for Bulgaria Foundation and Tokuda Bank, support our mission by offering student loans under the “Your Future in Bulgaria” program. If you are admitted to the Academy, the America for Bulgaria Foundation will financially support some of you by covering 20% of the loan principal for each year you remain working in Bulgaria after graduating from the Academy. The loan amount is $3,000 per academic year, and the application requirements are: you must be accepted into one of the four programs at ARC Academy – Game Design, Concept Art, 3D Art, or Game Programming, regardless of whether it is in-person or remote, and you must not have a current scholarship from the Academy.
Student financing is an opportunity to help turn your dream into reality. Here’s what our successfully graduated and employed students who benefited from funding for their education shared:
“The funding from the America for Bulgaria Foundation and Tokuda Bank allowed me not to postpone my application to ARC Academy for a better ‘financial period,’ but to do it immediately. This, in turn, introduced me to the people, opportunities, and projects that placed me in the professional environment I am in now.” – Panayot Nikolov, Associate Producer and alumni student, Class of 2022/2023
“The student loan ‘Your Future in Bulgaria’ helped me focus on the most important thing – my education, without unnecessary worries. This was one of the reasons I started my professional development in the field of art not abroad but in Bulgaria.” – Darena Georgieva, Junior 2D Designer and alumni student, Class of 2023/2024
