Most attention is paid to a good performance in the aural part. All applicants must sit the paper and, if asked, attend a short interview. Specimen entrance papers are available free from the Music School. The interview allows us to select the most highly motivated students. Applicants will not be asked to play.
Music students do exceptionally well in the job market.
Some go on to teach, others find their degree useful in obtaining employment in sectors outside music altogether, and a few enjoy successful careers in performance.
