I feel so very sorry for students who have accepted places on these courses only to find they’ve been axed so late in the ucas calendar. Are there any thoughts on whether this will impact the acting or MT courses? I’m thinking that either GSA might try to pick up some of these students rather than l...

Can I ask if anyone has any experience of the reserve list for the BA Acting course at GSA?

Thanks for the link, as you say it’s very interesting to see the schools the article has chosen to focus on. I wonder if there was a charge for being included! Interesting list yet I have to say a cynical comment. I think you'll find that most of the colleges named have been nominated for Stage Sch...

Congratulations Marissa, I’ve been following your story and hoping your DD would get good news

So much really helpful information here.

Good luck to your Dd. I’m sure she will be brilliant! I’ve sent you a PM Lotsolaffs

Oh my word, wishing you and your DD the very best of luck. We know the Premier Inn very well!

Looking at the calendar, I think the scholarship auditions are coming up this week.
Wishing good luck to everyone involved x

Thanks for all the input. It’s really helpful.
Interesting to hear that help with rent via housing benefit is available.
Is this for foundation courses only? Or any private BA course?

I've just spent the afternoon trying to understand what financial help is available at 18+ for full-time Acting courses. From what I can understand, some courses are run through universities and so you get the full student loan for the tuition fees of >£9,250, plus a maintenance loan, the actual amo...

At 16 living at home and accessing great training would be perfect. Sadly that’s that’s not always possible.
And so some of us have to spend money now that we would prefer to save for when they’re 18.

Good luck to anyone still waiting to hear
