Trinity College London and ALRA

ALRA has a long-standing relationship with Trinity College London which enables students to benefit form the Dance and Drama Awards scheme. This scheme helps students pay for their course fees and some can receive support for living expenses. This is a merit and means-tested award for which all students are eligible for consideration once they have been offered a place at ALRA.

Details of the two courses that are validated by Trinity College London can be found via the links below.

The content of these courses is identical to the BA Acting and MA Professional Acting courses at ALRA. The only difference is the available funding options for the courses as students who apply for a DaDA award are not eligible to apply for students loans schemes.

Students who accept a DaDA are enrolled as a Trinity College student in addition to St Mary's for validation purposes.

Level 6 Diploma in Professional Acting

Students undertake the same curriculum as the BA Acting Course but receive the additional qualification from Trinity College London as a benefit of their DaDa Funding. It is the same course content as the BA Acting and students work alongside the BA Acting students in their training to become a professional actor in Theatre, TV, Film and Radio.
