An update from Abbey Road Institute
In March, in light of the developing situation with the coronavirus, we temporarily closed our campus and moved to teach our students online during the lockdown period. As the lockdown has started to open up in the UK, we started to give our students individual access again to our teaching spaces from Monday 15th June onwards. This has been carefully planned with a full risk assessment having taken place and our students and staff are following strict social distancing rules. We are closely following the guidance provided by both the UK government and World Health Organisation to make sure we have the most up to date information and can effectively monitor the situation. We are also continuing to teach all of our usual classroom-based lessons online via digital platforms at the moment.
We’ll be updating this page and our social media channels on a regular basis with status updates. Our team are still here, working from home and available to speak with you. If you have any questions please drop us an email london@abbeyroadinstitute.com
We’ve also included some useful FAQ’s below to offer further guidance if you’re applying to study with us at this time.
I want to apply for the Advanced diploma in music production and sound engineering. Has the application process changed?
We are open and taking applications for our Advanced Diploma in Music Production and Sound Engineering as usual. Our team are mainly working from home and are here and available to help guide you through the process.
You can also find guidance on what you need to do to apply on the entry requirements section of the course page. You should gather together all the required documents and submit them, as usual, using our online application portal. We will, however, be changing the interview to an online interview instead of in person at our campus. The interview will still be the same except that we will meet you online rather than in person (through Skype or another online platform). If your application is successful and moves to the next stages we will send you more information about this. If you need any support or guidance for the online interview process please let us know by emailing london@abbeyroadinstitute.com
I’d like to see the studio and teaching facilities at the campus. When can I come in for a tour?
At the moment our London campus is temporarily closed to any visitors. Whilst we cannot offer tours in the next few weeks we’re still here and very happy to speak with you about what it’s like to study with us and provide you with lots of useful information on the course, how to apply and future careers. We are giving virtual 121s with our Campus Manager and Student Administrator – email us to book a day and time that suits you via london@abbeyroadinstitute.com.
You can also visit the location page of our website so that you can see our teaching spaces, studio, production rooms and get an idea of all of the gear you’ll have access to as a student. We’re looking forward to inviting you to our campus in the future.
Can I still apply to join the advanced diploma this October?
We have a few places still available for October and are still accepting applications. As we interview on a rolling basis and places are limited we recommend you to apply as soon as you are able to.
