Production Arts Interviews
Interviews at Guildhall
When you apply for a programme in our Production Arts department and you meet the entry requirements, you will be invited to an interview.
We aim to make your interview day as informative and enjoyable as possible. When you interview in London at the School for BA Production Arts , you will spend a whole day with us; for BA Performance Design you will spend a morning or an afternoon with us. This gives you the opportunity to assess what the School has to offer you, as well as giving us the chance to get to know you. During the interview process you will have the opportunity to discuss the training with current students.
To attend an interview with the School, international applicants are encouraged to travel to London in the UK.
If you are unable to travel to London an online interview can be arranged. Choosing an online interview will not impact on the way in which your application is considered by the School. However, we do encourage applicants to attend interviews in person, to benefit from a visit to the School, where you can take a look at the facilities and meet our teaching staff and current students.
If you have any questions about interview venues or travelling to meet us, please email pa_applications@gsmd.ac.uk.
International students
We welcome applications from all over the world to train with us at Guildhall. If you are unable to travel to London, we would encourage you to apply and undertake an online interview. Wherever possible, we do advise that you attend an interview in person as you will be able to enjoy a day with us at the School.
