ENROLMENT
ENROLMENT
Applicants who have been accepted on the Theatre Dance Course will receive a letter of acceptance stating the commencement date of the course and its duration. In order to secure a place, the Enrolment Form should be completed and returned with the enrolment fee (all cheques payable to London Studio Centre) to the Auditions' Administrator within four weeks of the audition date.
Self-funding Degree students enrolling at the London Studio Centre must also pay an additional fee to register with the University. All non-E.U. nationals who require a student visa must pay a deposit which will be reimbursed at the end of their course.
Please note that all students must have private medical insurance by the commencement of the course.
TUITION FEES
Please follow the link for full details of current fees. Cheques should be made payable to the London Studio Centre. Fees are payable termly in advance but an annual invoice will be sent unless termly invoices are requested from the Financial Controller. In cases of hardship, special arrangement for payment of tuition fees can be considered by the Director. These arrangements must be confirmed in writing. Overseas students should pay by a sterling bankers draft drawn on a U.K. Bank. Receipts will be issued by the Financial Controller.
Notice in writing of the proposed withdrawal of a student must be given to the Registrar at least one full term in advance. Failure to give due notice will entail payment of the full fee due. Fees are not returnable in the case of a student leaving a course, or missing part of a course, for any reason (including illness).
HEFCE FUNDING
Awarded on the basis of talent, since September 2004 the Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE) has agreed to fund the tuition fees of students on the Centre's Degree Programme. The scheme applies equally to all EU students, however the number of funded places is under annual review. Places are awarded specifically on the basis of talent, as determined at audition. The scheme also provides access to the student support/loan schemes.
SCHOLARSHIPS
A limited number of scholarships is available annually, including the Dame Anna Neagle Award, which is given to a student selected by a representative from the Cameron Mackintosh Production Company. The auditions for these scholarships are by invitation only and are held during the Summer Term.
The scholarships vary in value and are always for tuition fees
only. Recipients are requested to undertake small duties around the college. The London Studio
Centre has the right to revoke the scholarship at any time.
(Bodies wishing to support
Scholarships are invited to contact
the Director)
CHARITABLE TRUSTS
Some charitable trusts have helped finance students in the past, and directories listing the various grant making trusts should be available at your local library. Some further information about grants, funds, loans and bursaries is available as a PDF from this link.
