The AFA Degree Program in Producing allows students to focus exclusively on their professional and artistic development. Unlike a standard undergraduate program students are able to focus on the field they wish to pursue immediately and without the usual array of distribution requirements.

The New York Film Academy Associate of Fine Art degree programs are stand-alone degree programs intended to prepare students for a career in the industry. They are designed giving students the opportunity to focus almost exclusively on subject in a studio based curriculum without standard distribution requirements. These AFA programs are not intended to be components of longer bachelor's degree programs nor they structured for transfer.
