Choose the correct letter, A, B or C.
Which college does Demon suggest would be best?
(L=Louisa D=Demon)
L: Hi, Demon! What are you doing here? I thought you were supposed to be revising for your finals in the library?
D: Yeah, well I decided it was time for a break. I really wasn’t being very productive so thought I’d come and have a coffee and some fresh air to see if that’d help. What are you doing with all those prospectuses?
L: Well I’m trying to decide which university to apply to for my MA in Music. The choice is really overwhelming!
D: Well that certainly is a big pile of prospectuses. Maybe talking about it will help you at least narrow it down? I’ve got some time, and to be honest, it’ll be a welcome distraction from my dissertation.
L: Great! Thanks, Demon. So far, the universities that appeal the most are the Academy in London, Leeds Conservatory of Contemporary Music and the Henry Music Institute, which is also in London.
D: I’m not an expert but wouldn’t
the Henry Music Institute be the best
as it’s the one that everyone’s heard of?
L: Well... yes and no. Leeds Conservatory of Contemporary Music is also pretty famous and although the Academy in London is less well-known, they’ve got some excellent modules on offer.
D: But still, it’s always good to have a well-known name on your CV, even if Leeds Conservatory of Contemporary Music and the Academy in London are good... What about the entry requirements? That might help you to make a decision.
L: Well, funny you should say that as I was just looking at them. The Academy in London requires an audition as does the Henry Music Institute.
D: Leeds Conservatory of Contemporary Music doesn’t?
L: No, they want candidates to compose a piece of music instead, before attending an interview.
D: Don’t the others require you to do that? Compose, that is?
L: No, the others ask you to write an assignment stating why you want to join the course first of all, but if I pass that stage
then I’ll also have to attend a face-to-face interview like the other two places
with the head of school. Assuming that goes OK, then I’ll be accepted onto the course.
D: Right. Sounds tough!
L: I know, but I suppose it’s for a Master’s degree so I wasn’t expecting it to be easy.
D: What about the fees? Are they all the same?
L: Well, surprisingly, the fee structures are very different.
D: Why’s that?
L: I really don’t know, but, for example, the Henry Music Institute is the most expensive at £9,000 a year, next comes the Academy in London and the cheapest is Leeds Conservatory of Contemporary Music.
D: Mmm... How much are they exactly?
L: Well, for a full-time course lasting one year it’s 6,000 pounds at the Academy in London
and 8,000 pounds at Leeds Conservatory of Contemporary Music.
D: OK. Well, what other expenses do you have to take into consideration, like train fares for example? If you’re going to be travelling home and back during the holidays, that’s got to be a factor.
L: I’m not worried about that, though insurance is an added cost as I’ll need to make sure my instrument is covered.
However, all of them require me to send in a check for the charges for applying
before they’ll process my application.
D: Is that normal?
L: Apparently...
D: Can I have a look?
L: Yes, of course. Here you are.
D: Ummm.
L: What is it?
D: Well, I think you might have a problem.
L: Why? What is it?
D: Well it says here that the deadline is January the 6th. That’s next week.
L: Where? Let me see... you’re right! Which prospectus is this?
D: The Henry Music Institute...
L: Oh no! What am I going to do?
D: Make your decision now?
L: Is the closing date the same for all of them?
D: Let’s check... Look here,
Leeds Conservatory of Contemporary Music is on the 16th
but the Academy in London isn’t until the 26th of this month.
L: Ok, I’d better hurry up and make a decision.
