Getting in

As the university states it

Raindance considers multiple criteria to assess an applicant’s suitability for this programme. This criteria can include an academic, post- secondary degree, industry experience or transferrable professional skills. First and foremost, we will consider your readiness to engage with self-directed study, and the viability of your proposed learning pathway. Students over 21 can apply as mature students providing they can demonstrate the ability (and experience) to study at the appropriate level. Employment history will be advantageous and qualifications taken several years ago will also be taken into account. The following supporting evidence combine to determine an applicant’s suitability for this programme: • Diploma(s) or certificate(s) of your prior learning from an accredited UK university or international equivalent, higher education institution, college or training programme together with the transcript • Your up-to-date employment CV or student resume • A 500-word essay, either reflecting on a project you were involved in, or analysing a film that you find inspirational. • A written Learning Plan that briefly outlines your chosen focus of study, skills development, activities and resources to develop your knowledge. • A sample or artifact of creative work in which you undertook a key creative role (writer, director, producer, cinematographer, composer, editor etc.) Other supporting evidence may be required for some students, in addition to the above, and can be requested by the Registrar: • Proof of UK residence for the duration of your studies (for London-based students) • Additional course certificates or diplomas (if requested by the Administration Team) • Sample of academic writing (if requested by the Administration Team)
