WrapsnBows Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 Evening my DS Has just been places on the waiting list for the Hammond MDS but I am interested who has in the past been offered a bursary, when were you informed about it etc as unsure if to continue with paying out if it’s not worth it a specially in this uncertain climate 😢. Also who many in the past have been on the reserve list but then have gained an MDS thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mummy twinkle toes Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 When Dd1 was going to go you were asked to ring about bursaries. These were dependent on where you were on list. If your income was a certain level you were offered 50%. However, that was 3 years ago and it used to discuss them on the website. Now there is no mention of them. That year we knew 2 who got MDS in June so they can come later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danceintherain Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 Call the Finance department on Monday. As soon as MDSs are announced you can ring and discuss what bursaries they can offer you. The school closed yesterday, but I would imagine they will be in on Monday as there's so much for them to sort out this time of year. Good luck.

Betty’s mum Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 When we did our tour during the audition time we were advised that as well as the MDS an amount of bursaries would be available so I would definitely get in touch on Monday... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balletdream Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 Hi WrapsnBows , when we began our journey at The Hammond , my daughter got offered a place but she was on waiting list , we was offered bursary , but 3 weeks before the term started she was offered MDS . Overjoyed was an understatement , and Thursday she just found out she’s got a DADA to continue her training with them. I know it’s a very scary time but hang in there .... dreams do come true . Good luck 👍👍 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milzmam Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Hi all, my dd also on reserve list and I contacted school on Friday. I was informed that bursaries would be discussed after 17th April once they know who has accepted MDS. Fingers crossed for everyone xx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know not everyone is on this forum but there doesnt seem to be that many MDS given out, there seems to be more people on reserve list. Does anyone know of anyone in years 8,9 or 10 that has been given MDS? Another 4 weeks of waiting😪😪 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Betty’s mum Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 Apparently (was told by a friend who’s DD was at Tring MDS finals) Tring only gave 3 MDS so cant see much movement of the back of that sadly xxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ms Sunshine Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 Last year my dd was offered MDS at Hammond. She then got Tring MDS so gave up the Hammond. She then got the Elmhurst mds so gave Tring mds. Hope this helps x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We got told by the Hammond that for the year 7 intake this year there was only 12 MDS places but since, been advised after getting a place, that there are no longer any bursaries it’s now full price unless you get an MDS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
