Access Courses
Our brand-new Access Courses are designed to support people who intend to apply to study at RCS and offer 40 credits at SCQF Level 6.
They provide high-quality training for students interested in studying Production, Arts with Community, or Music Education at Undergraduate level at RCS.
On the course, you will develop practical skills to improve your artform, take part in regular training and audition and interview preparation, and receive expert advice which helps you navigate the UCAS system, personal statement writing and the audition/interview process.
The courses are structured to sit alongside school, college or work and are delivered using a mixture of in person and online teaching.
