Our open days are fun, interactive and informative. Not only will you find out more about the programme of study you are interested in, but you will get to experience it too.
Come and see us onsite to learn all about the undergraduate, postgraduate or RAD Award programmes that you are interested in. At our Open Days we will be hosting Information Sessions with our academic staff who will give an overview of our programmes, you will have the chance to chat to our admissions staff about the application process, and our current students will be on hand to answer any questions you may have about life on one of our programmes. You will also be able to take a look at our students in practice in the studio.
All open days will be held at the RAD building, 188 York Road, London, SW11 3JZ.
