Finally some fantastic news for my DD, a degree offer at Italia Conti!!
We are thrilled to bits, proud, emotional and relieved. It’s been a long time coming since that first audition on Jan 2nd. What a journey!
Good luck to all those still waiting, there’s time yet xx
Huge congratulations to your DD, must be such a relief after the waiting.

The Bird waiting list is so painful! We were told top end and strong position but still no news yet.

I’ve sent you a pm, but says it’s in the outbox not the sent box, so not sure if it’s got to you or not! X

I haven't had to use this site recently as my daughter is currently training for her degree. But I've had a nose around, and remember all the anxieties and heartache we went through when she was auditioning... I hope you're all getting there now!!
I have looked at many of your posts - and common themes are finance (sigh!) and taking a gap year (fingers crossed for next year!!) - and so I wanted to make a small plug for Bodens College of Performing Arts. My daughter started her full-time training journey with them, and it was the best decision we ever made! All of their courses are free and performances are incredible.
They offer full-time courses for 16-18 year olds - a 2-year extended diploma option, and a 1-year Gap Year course for 18 year olds. They also offer a free three-week summer course...
Honestly couldn't recommend them higher. The amount of their graduates training at top drama schools this year is unbelievable.
A very special little place!!

I just had to share my news. On Tuesday my son graduated with a Ba in Acting and yesterday my daughter was offered a place off the reserve list for the same course! I am so overjoyed and proud of both of them, don't mind admitting there were a few tears last night
I would like to thank everyone on here for all the advice and support, its not been an easy journey...she had a gap year and has just finished a foundation course. We were all starting to plan her next gap year when the email arrived out of the blue!
Good luck to everyone still waiting, its such a difficult path to follow, resilience is key I think ( and thats just for the parents)
