There are three main ways Drama School courses are funded.  To see how the course you are interested in is funded, you should first have a look at our Accredited course list, then refer to Sections 1, 2 and 3 below to find out more about the various sources of funding.

It is advisable to investigate the different sources of funding at the same time as making decisions on which Drama Schools to apply for.

If you are a European Union Student you should contact the Department for Education and Skills EU Means Testing Team on 01325 391199.

Students from outside the EU will pay full fees for all courses.  Go to Advice for Overseas Students.
