World-leading music tuition is expensive. Undergraduate course fees are £9,790 for UK students and start at £31,300 for international students. With the ever-increasing cost of living in London, coupled with instrument maintenance and intensive private practice, many students are unable to supplement their income, and find the financial commitment extremely challenging. A lack of adequate financial support for music students will drastically affect the positive impact that music has on society.
Providing scholarship support enables us to relieve the financial burden and allows our talented students to focus on their studies and make the most of the RCM experience. In turn, we produce world-class musicians who make a significant contribution to the global musical landscape and inspire others with their music-making. Over 50% of our students currently receive some form of financial support, giving them the freedom to excel in their studies and prepare for their careers.
