You can apply for all NTI programs using the general "National Theater Institute" application form on Submittable. (More information about each program can be found on the pages for NTINMTINTI-ADNTI-AP, and Theatermakers.)

Once an application is submitted, qualified candidates will be asked to schedule an interview with the NTI admissions staff, which will take place via phone or Zoom.

 

If the $30 application fee poses a financial barrier to you, please reach out to us at ntirep@theoneill.org before you begin your application.
