Student Life & Support
Student life and support
We’ll give you the practical, emotional and learning support you need when you first arrive and throughout your time at the Conservatoire.
As well as the support services available to you, you’ll find our community is very friendly and welcoming. The Conservatoire is a very special place and one where, we are sure, you will flourish - and feel supported so that you can rise to the many challenges and intensive demands of your programme.
Naturally, we operate an equal opportunities policy. We celebrate our differences and believe that our diversity is an important contribution to creativity.
Our equal opportunities statement
The Royal Conservatoire of Scotland welcomes a diverse population of staff and
students. We are committed to promoting equality in all of our activities and we aim to provide a
performing, learning, teaching, working, and research environment free from unlawful discrimination
against applicants, staff, and students on the grounds of age, disability, gender reassignment,
marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion and belief, sex and sexual
orientation.
