Personalized Plans

If it still proves a bit too heavy on the wallet, just speak to one of our admissions coordinators, who will work out a specialized plan just for you.

Student Line of Credit

This is the number one choice of our students. 

What is a student line of credit?
A student line of credit is a set amount of funds borrowed from Canadian banks, credit unions, etc,  to allow students to pursue their educational journey. It is funds that are allocated specifically to you, and are accessible whenever needed.

 

How it works
We have a great reputation with the major Canadian Banks. They approve student lines of credit for up to $20,000 a year, and offer amazing low interest rates, including a one-year interest free grace period. 

 

You must meet the following criteria:

  • Be a full-time or part time, post-secondary student
  • Be a Canadian citizen or a permanent resident
    A co signer may be required depending on your credit score


Check out the links to see the various offers for students from the local banks. 

TD, BMO, RBC, Scotiabank, National Bank,

In addition, be sure to check out personal lines of credit. These are offered at a higher interest rate, but can exceed the $20,000 loan, and offer a more flexible repayment period.

Tangerine, Meridian, MoGo, Simplii, Manulife

We highly encourage you to speak to a local bank representative to gain more insight, be offered customization, and be aware of any conditions.. Miami Ad School Toronto does not work with any financial institution, and is not guarranting you a line of credit. We are only stating what has worked well  for some of our students in the past. International students and students who have borrowed from private lenders will need to independently review and confirm the details of their repayment with their respective loan providers.

Award Show Entrance Fees

Our students love competitions. It sparks their creative engines. With so many great ones running all year long, it’s tough to narrow down which ones to sign up for. In addition, each competition has a sign up fee, Yikes! We, at Miami Ad School Toronto, have you covered. If students are willing to register and participate for the entire duration of the competition, we will foot the entrance fee.

Which award shows might we be referring too? Clios, Cannes Lions, Young Glory, D&AD and more!

Top Dog Award

This is a Miami Ad School tradition, and a huge honour. Consider it the Oscar of awards. Each quarter the most successful student receives a $500 scholarship for the following quarter.

This award is granted based on input from the entire faculty. The student will have demonstrated incredible work ethic, great attitude, an undeniable talent, and positive feedback from instructors and peers.

Agency Labs

Miami Ad School offers agency labs for our students, making us the only school to work with the best agencies and studios in 10 countries and 16 different markets across the globe. Agency labs is equal parts internship and mentorship, the students work in real agencies and are assigned a creative director who will become a portfolio mentor.

Agency Labs come with a stipend for the students effort.

Live clients like to offer scholarship incentives for the top 3 winning teams. The amounts can vary depending on who the client is.
