After yesterday's first part, we are back with three more music scholarships to sink your teeth into.
Scholarships For International Musicians To Study In The UK
The Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music (ABRSM) offer a total of eight international scholarships each academic year; one undergraduate and one postgraduate at each of the four associated Royal Schools of Music.
These are the Royal Academy of Music and Royal College of Music in London, the Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester and the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland.
These awards are offered in connection with, and on the recommendation of, each of the Royal Schools of Music.
The scholarships cover full tuition fees and part maintenance for the duration of the undergraduate programmes and for one or two years of postgraduate study.
Main Criteria
You must be a national of a country that is not in the European Union (EU).
You should not have been living and/or studying in the UK for more than a year preceding 31 January in the year of entry to the course.
You must be at least 17 years of age for an undergraduate study, and 21 years for postgraduate study.
No separate application process is necessary, as candidates are automatically considered for the scholarships by the Admissions Board at each Royal School of Music. Recommendations are then made directly to ABRSM.
