Royal Academy of Music - Support us

Scholarships

Each year, the Royal Academy of Music auditions talented students from the UK and across the world who may not have the means to cover the fees necessary to complete their studies. Since the Academy wishes to recruit on talent alone, we are striving to build up our Scholarship Fund so that we continue to attract the very best students regardless of background and circumstances.

With this in mind, we distribute over £1million in the form of bursaries each year. Some of this is from the Academy’s own endowments, but the rest is from external sources. The need for funding for bursaries remains paramount – we are only able to fulfil one in every five requests for help. Last year, the requested amount of bursary support from students was over £3million. Our aim is to distribute as much money as is available.

The Academy is committed to ensuring that scholarships are awarded on the basis of financial need with assessment taking place to ensure that the most deserving and talented individuals receive support.

Donating to the Scholarship Fund allows you to provide direct support to some of the Academy’s most talented and deserving students and to follow their development throughout their period of study here.

As well as providing supporters with updates on student progress, the Academy also encourages opportunities for supporters to meet their students and to attend concerts and recitals throughout the year.
