Scholarships
Each Pathways Scholar receives a scholarship in the amount of $30k to help offset the cost of
their university education.
Education and career readiness
Pathways Scholars will receive access to education materials that will prepare them for finding
and working in careers in the gaming industry. This will include behind the scenes video
content, mock interview training, tips for building and maintaining a professional portfolio of
their work, and much more.
Mentorship and advocacy
Each Pathways Scholar is matched with a Pathways Pro (mentor) to help guide them in their
exploration of the gaming industry. In addition to being a professional mentor, Pathways Pros
will also open their networks to scholars to help them further build their community within
gaming.
Industry exposure
Pathways Scholars will receive opportunities to attend industry events, conferences, studio
tours, and panels to provide them a more robust picture of what a career in gaming can entail.
Community building
Each Pathways Scholar will be part of a cohort of students who are also pursuing careers in the
gaming industry. We
intend for this to be a peer network where scholars can encourage and learn from each other
during their academic
journey and beyond.
