Scholarships and bursaries
BIMM Music Institute is dedicated to helping students develop their skills, talents and self-confidence while gaining a nationally recognised Further or Higher Education qualification.
Every academic year, we’re able to offer a limited number of scholarships and bursaries to talented and dedicated applicants and students who are in financial hardship.
Available Scholarships and bursaries
We are delighted to announce that we have partnered with The Black Music Coalition (BMC) and Wretch 32 for a brand-new scholarship.
The Black Music Coalition (BMC) is a Black-led organisation that was founded in June 2020 following #TheShowMustBePaused. Created to address systemic anti-Black racism within the UK music industry, BMC advocates for racial equality, equity, and the empowerment of Black executives, artists and communities. The organisation comprises an executive and a broader committee of Black professionals connected to the UK music industry.
We want a level playing field and equity of opportunity , and so we have set up the Fair Access Fund to ensure students are supported during their studies.
Last academic year, BIMM University awarded over 250 low-income household bursaries to first-year students to support their transition into student life, buy equipment, or get the support they needed.
Successful applicants will receive financial support packages of up to £1,500 per academic year. While we cannot commit to payment amounts before enrolment, we aim to allocate the budget to eligible applicants. We will confirm the exact payment amount and schedule post-enrolment.
As part of our commitment to fostering inclusivity and removing financial barriers, BIMM University offers a travel bursary programme for prospective students attending our Open Days, auditions, and in-person applicant days within the UK.
