How to apply
Advice to applicants
You will need to submit two contrasting compositions (eg fixed media, interactive music, audio-visual) and, if appropriate, a brief statement or project description that includes reference to, for example, programming languages experience as applied to musical outcomes, or experience with analogue and modular synthesizers.
You can upload the portfolio under the 'CV/Resume' option in the Supporting Documents section at the end of the application form.
How your application is considered
Applications are mainly considered on the basis of an assessment of past and predicted academic achievements, the academic reference(s) and any other supplementary evidence that supports the application. Once we have an application that is ready for a decision, the admissions tutor (often the Programme Director) will relay the decision to the admissions team, who will send you this decision.
Please note that your application is usually received by the School 24 to 48 hours after the time you submit it. If you have not provided documentation that allows the admissions tutor to make a decision, we will contact you.
Overseas (non-UK) applicants
If English is not your first language, please provide us with evidence of:
- an overall grade 6.5 in IELTS; or
- 93+ in the IBT Internet-based TOEFL
