Hi,

I was just going to give my dd a few items of cutlery/crockery etc that she may need to use. Also a small fridge and kettle for her room too. 👍🏻

Hi, Any Scottish dancers at London Studio Centre doing the Degree course. What funding did you get from SAAS? Just checking options as we are now applying. Thanks👍🏻

🤞🏻🤞🏻xx

Hi. I just requested 16th Sept till 14July. The office said we could tweak the dates later so if we needed an extra night etc I’m sure it would be fine. Is your daughter going to go to LSC ? 😀 

I felt that staying here for the first year would be a good start 😀👍🏻

Hope u get a room sorted soon. 👍🏻

Has anyone managed to secure accommodation at Chester House, starting in Sept as a first year student. Been told there is a WL and wonder if this is no longer an option. Accommodation selection available at 16 is minimal...or am I missing somewhere. Txs

I have got accommodation for my DD. Had an email yesterday. It’s just a standard room but will be fine for her. 👍🏻

Thanks for all the information 👍🏻xx

My dd turns 18 this week so feels ready to go👍🏻Good luck in your decisions xx

My Dd has now decided to accept the offer at LSC. She had some other offers but that is where she always wanted to go from the first time we went there for Open day etc. Feel so happy that we can now focus on sorting everything out 👍🏻🎉Exciting times ahead. Good luck to you all on your choices … it’s complicated juggling and waiting xx

Congratulations to your DD 🤩 xxx 

Thanks so much ! Exciting times ahead xxx

Thanks for everyone’s help. It’s been so supportive. Finally after a season  of auditions and a variety of offers, my DD has decided to go with the offer from LSC with the BA in Theatre Dance (Jazz). Now we know we can get cracking on everything! Good luck to everyone 🤞🏻😀👍🏻xx

Oh thanks so much. Good to hear. We are in Scotland so she’ll be far from home. We are just looking at all options. She has an offer for the BA (hons)in Theatre Dance - Jazz pathway. Not totally decided until all audition results come in. Lots to consider 👍🏻and want to be organised for all eventualities 😃

Still awaiting the result 🙈😫👀. We are not good at this game. Once we know what’s to be we can make decisions 👍🏻Hoping soon.

@kazia1 DD auditioned on a Saturday and we got an email the following Friday. Good luck ☘️

Oh that good so not too long. She’s interested in the jazz route which sounded great. I loved the way that they were concerned about employability. The positive destinations of their graduates was impressive. 👍🏻

Any other options for accommodation near LSC ? Not totally decided yet but keeping all options open. Looking to factor in accommodation prices etc before deciding.Thanks 👍🏻

Hi, does anyone have experience of Chester House for LSC students? Just doing a bit of research before final decisions on where for DD? She’s decided not to do further auditions and look at her offers. What a busy time for all! Thx 👍🏻

All done now. DD enjoyed her day and got a good feeling about the place. It was very informative and like an audition and open day rolled into one ! How long did it take for results? Hate this waiting game again as decisions need to be made asap. Thanks so much every for your invaluable information. 😍👍🏻

Parents come back for the Q&A. NBS look after the parents with tea and coffee set up for you in the morning in a studio where you can wait and then a presentation by the deputy principal after lunch break followed by a tour. 

Thanks for the information 👍🏻

Did the parents stay or go and come back for Q & A ? 😀

Hi, auditioned on January 20th and got the yes to finals on February 7th! But someone we know got a no result in 4 days.

Thanks, so no real consistency 🙈 …. just need to play the waiting game! 👍🏻

Hi😀How long does it take to get the result from RCS first audition? I’m assuming it will be within 2 weeks. Can’t stand this waiting game when juggling offers! Thanks.

DS auditioned last year in person (and now currently in 1st year, and loving it) … audition comprised of classes in the morning, ballet and then I think jazz or modern? They had current students in the classes with them so they have someone to look to if they get in a pickle. Then the flexibility assessment which is done as a class so not as intimidating as it sounds, then school talk & tour (with parents) which was a good chance to ask lots of questions, and then solos and interviews. Solos were a complete mix… they study all genres of dance so it really can be anything. DS did a piece of music that changed half way did he could do a bit of ballet and a bit of contemporary, but literally there were people doing all genres. Interview was fine… he said it was gentle, just a nice chat about what he loved about dancing, what his ambitions were and whether we were supportive of the application. Teas and coffees laid out for parents and somewhere for us all to sit on a very rainy day. It was probably the most welcoming and friendly audition we did. They also offer free workshops and summer schools which give you a taster of the school too.  Good Luck!! 

Thank you. It sounds like a very positive experience😀How long did it take for the results?
