Starting your studies

Congratulations again on your success at audition! We look forward to welcoming you to the Royal College of Music in September and we hope you enjoy your time with us.

The Autumn Term commences on 15 September 2025. We will contact all new students in August with full details of arrangements for the start of term and registration.

You will need to meet all the conditions of your offer prior to registration.

Make sure you remember to let us know your preferences for your principal study professor and to spend time finding accommodation that meets your needs. Don’t forget to let us know if you require any support arising from a disability or other circumstances. International students should also spend time preparing their visa applications.

In the meantime, the RCM will be preparing for the new academic year, which will include creating your IT account. If you have a preferred name or familiar name which is different to the one you used for your UCAS application, please advise us by contacting admissions@rcm.ac.uk.
