The Course is funded in two different ways. The Government will not fund for the Access part anybody who is not 19 by August 31st 2009. If you just miss this date, please contact Mark Woolgar for advice
The Government usually does not announce its subsidy levels until the Spring, so we cannot confirm 09/10 fees until then. However, this may be a guide – in 2008/09 the standard EU fee is £3,610 and £7,175 for non EU students.
Fees are paid in three instalments at the start of each term.
To audition for the Course there is an Audition fee of £20
There may be the need to pay for scripts during the Course – which are obtained at a discount rate via a local bookshop.
If Theatre visits are arranged these are extra (and obviously at a Group rate). Eg in the current year there are trips to Peter Hall’s Shakespeare productions at the new Rose at Kingston Theatre, and to other theatres..
All cheques should be made payable to RACC (which stands for Richmond Adult Community College
Some courses at the College are subsidised by Government grants, particularly those which hit Government targets. EU citizens who can prove that they are studying for their first Level 3 qualification (eg AS,A2, Access, BTEC) may be eligible for fee exemption, as are learners on income based benefits. For up-to-date information on help with fees, please contact our Advice and Guidance service direct (email info@racc.ac.uk telephone 020 8891 5907) as some details change from year to year.
It is possible to take just the Access modules – which means attendance only on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday morning. Contact Mark Woolgar for advice re-this.
