Students may be able to obtain work (both inside and outside the Academy) during their time here.

International students on a Tier 4 or Student Visa are usually allowed to work up to 20 hours per week within the restrictions of their visa regulations.

Opportunities to earn money as a musician might be possible if the work is organised through the Academy’s External Bookings department. More information is available on the International page.
