Open Day, Audition & Interview Travel Bursary
As part of our commitment to fostering inclusivity and removing financial barriers, BIMM offers a travel bursary programme for prospective students attending our Open Days, auditions, and in-person applicant days within the UK.
This initiative aims to reduce the financial burden on applicants and ensure individuals from diverse socio-economic backgrounds have equal opportunities to engage with our institution.
You and one guest can use the bursary to reimburse travel expenses to our UK campuses, up to £50 in total.
All claims will require applicants to provide evidence that they have registered for and attended the event, as well as copies of travel receipts. Claims will be processed post-attendance, checked against our records for verification.
Please note that availability is limited, and claims are processed on a first-come, first-served basis.
