Anyone else waiting for news regarding a DaDa from Laine? We received a rather confusing email about 3 weeks again explaining about about their talent list and dd was not high enough to be awarded a DaDa yet but more were to be offered. Fortunately she does have a foundation offer elsewhere but it w...

With no BA offers yet, considering quickly jumping onto foundation MT for a gap year and to support trying again next year. Any recommendations or ones to avoid? Also realise top ones may be filled already so considering places like Read College that specialise. Would love any insights, tia Hi Lizz...

Does anyone know anything about an Urdang waiting list this year? They’ve never had one before 🤷‍♀️ Interesting question, I’d hoped someone might answer it. I guess waiting lists make sense for Urdang if they hit their maximum intake. Does anyone know how many they’re taking this year? They’ve alwa...

So DD’s letter was offer with DaDA paperwork, plus letter saying being considered for funding, no mention of additional audition or when we hear more! Yes as of last year they stopped doing the additional dada audition. They must score everyone based on their actual audition and then after the fina...

Has anyone had any DADA or funding responses from Laines? Anyone know when these go out? We were led to believe May, but hearing rumours people have just got them? Yes I think it will be may, thats what we’ve heard and that’s when they’ve been always done it in the past. I can’t possibly see how th...

My daughter is in her first year at Urdang. We always knew them in the past to be mainly dance focused, however this has changed over recent years in my opinion. They are more triple threat than say Performers which is heavily weighted towards dance and was another of our top choices. She is a stro...

Thank you . Her strength is her singing and acting but is still a strong dancer .. good to have advice - how would you compare Urdang in the mix too ? My daughter is in her first year at Urdang. We always knew them in the past to be mainly dance focused, however this has changed over recent years i...

Was anyone at Urdang on Sunday? How was it? I’ve heard it was very busy, even more than normal, as a previous date was cancelled. Not hearing of many offers from Urdang being given either. Sounds like recalls are the same as the original auditions, they’re just not sure about you and want to see you...

They just said 20 for each course, the lessons of dance etc are streamed across the 3 courses which does make it better, they didn’t mention (not that I heard) foundation. Does anyone know if you apply for BA but aren’t quite right would they offer you foundation? Or would you have had to apply for...

Wow, 20. That is low. Any idea on numbers for foundation? I think they’ve cut the foundation to only 10 boys and 10 girls this year as well. It’s a bit crazy to think if you get in the foundation this year you would have got onto the degree another year. Those who do get onto the degree this year w...

Are some colleges just too big? I have just seen that Bird College is getting it’s third year students ready for their agent showcase films, all 195 of them!!! Yes 195!!! Ok that’s probably both diploma and degree students, but that sounds rather a lot to me. Are other colleges this big. I’m sure Ur...

The link above states: You’ll usually only get student finance if you’re doing your first higher education qualification - even if your previous course was self-funded. Would the diploma not count as the first higher education qualification and so student finance might not be available? However I’m ...
