Overseas Applicants We will be holding auditions at venues across the world, but audition requirements AND application deadline dates will change depending on your principal study and where you are applying to. We will be operating a pre-screening process for some instrumental departments. Full information on our locations, dates and requirements can be found on our website. Please check this prior to applying.
All international applicants and those that are submitting a recording must also include a spoken introduction recording that is separate from your instrumental performance. This must be submitted to your Acceptd application by the relevant application deadline for where you are auditioning. All recorded submissions should contain a spoken introduction in English. Please tell us: - Your name - A bit about your musical background and training you’ve had till now - Your musical ambitions - Your reasons for applying to the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland - This video should be no longer than 3 minutes long and separate to your performance video
Our overseas auditions will consist of one panel member and will also be recorded for review by the relevant department. • Please note for live overseas auditions, we cannot guarantee that a member of our teaching staff for your specific discipline will be on the panel. • All applicants will need to provide their own instruments (except piano). • All applicants will need to provide their own accompanist for overseas auditions.
