The M Intensive University Scholarship Committee evaluates student admissions to MIU based on artistic merit and financial need.
Artistic merit is evaluated through the student's entrance application and academic history.
While we cannot fully meet the needs of all applicants, we strive to assist as many students as possible with financial support when applicable for enrolling in our teacher training course.
We offer payment plans for all teacher training programmes, allowing students to spread the costs over up to a year.
Upon registration, we also offer tuition deductions for teacher training based on students' geographical locations, where currency differences impact their enrollment chances.
To help us aid more students, please request financial support only if your current situation does not allow you to attend the course, and specify your financial requirements when submitting your application.
You can request support from your employer; they can sponsor you and assist your learning in developing your community and meeting their current students' educational needs. Visit this page and provide the link to your employer; if necessary, we will guide them and answer any questions they might have.
We also advise you to research financial assistance from your local institutions, which often help access educational opportunities. These organisations may request documents; our team can assist you in providing the necessary information and evidence to enhance your chances of benefiting from financial support.

Mary Fish was born into an immigrant family in a small town in the northern United States during the Great Depression.
She was a kind, determined, and hardworking dreamer. While raising three children, she earned a PhD in economics and taught at a prestigious business school for many decades. During her career, she was awarded a Fulbright scholarship and had the opportunity to teach economics worldwide.
Although she was an accomplished scientist, Dr. Fish deeply appreciated all forms of creativity. She respected and admired excellence in various fields. When she first saw Patrice Moniz dance and interacted with him, she recognized the crystalline precision and energy in his creativity and teaching.
Though she is no longer with us, Dr. Fish continues to support Mr. Moniz and his students in their pursuit of excellence. This scholarship symbolizes her respect and admiration for Patrice and her commitment to helping his students become as superb as he is. Her dream is for them to become global ambassadors of his artistry and energy.
