"“I think the course is fantastic!”"
Places are limited and demand is high so you are advised to apply early to avoid disappointment.
The minimum age is 16 years. Applications are welcome from students of any age. Previous dance experience is essential, as is motivation, energy and commitment.
Applicants are invited to Rubicon for initial assessments in contemporary dance, ballet and creative dance. These sessions are purely to assess potential and require no specific set level of achievement. You are not expected to prepare individual set work, however this is an opportunity for you to use this process to work out if Rubicon is the right place for you.
This is followed by an informal interview, which gives applicants the opportunity to find out more about the course in relation to their specific development needs, and for staff to assess whether the applicant is suitable. Funding possibilities will also be discussed. In the event of uncertainty, you may be invited to access the centre programme activities during the summer term to determine suitability and commitment. You will be assessed during this period and then invited to return for a final recall audition, usually held in July. This ensures that all candidates are given sufficient opportunity in the selection process. There is no application fee but your application form should be completed and returned before the deadline date advertised on the website and in the centre brochures.
Course provision and accreditation- National Open College Network (NOCN) is through the Workers’ Educational Association, South Wales (WEA).
