BURSARIES
All Bursaries offered are possible with the support of our Patrons and Supporters. It is important to us that every student who is accepted onto the course is able to attend, so if you need financial support please complete the bursary section of the application form.
We do try to offer financial support to everyone who needs it. However, please note that bursary funding is not limitless and the bursaries will be offered to one participant from each instrument group and the participant will be chosen and nominated by the applications comitee. Full bursaries are occasionally offered, but only in exceptional circumstances, so we urge you to look elsewhere for funding too. It is important that you clearly explain your financial situation and why you need bursary funding, so that we can offer support to those most in need.
Bursary applications are considered on an individual basis and ensemble members applying for financial support must each complete the bursary form separately.
