As of 2009, the school had 350 employees and over 6,000 students per year. The New York Film Academy's philosophy is based on a "learning by doing" approach with intensive hands-on training.

In 2007 NYFA partnered with NBC News to start a program in digital journalism . NYFA is accredited by the NASAD National Association of Schools of Art and Design (CHEA approved).
