Acceptance into the BA Acting is by audition.We audition everyone who applies. The audition process has two rounds. For the first round you will be asked to submit a self-tape. Auditions are free and all applicants are invited to participate in the first round. If you are recalled, the second and final round, will take place over Zoom.The Zoom recall will give you an opportunity to work 121 with one of our tutors – to see if Collective might be right for you – and to ask any questions you have about the course. Only candidates who are pass both stages of the audition, and who are therefore able to demonstrate the required proficiency as an actor, will be considered for a place. In exceptional circumstances, if a candidate passes the audition process, but does not meet the minimum academic requirements, they may still be offered a place if their audition is deemed outstanding.
