Those that apply from the UK may be eligible for a government funded student loan to cover the cost of their studies. Those from further afield will need to arrange their own tuition fee payment.

At the time of writing, AMS online is the only specific HE music provider online that is able to offer extensive 1:1 mentorship to its students.

Our Tutors

"The highlight of the course was the 1:1 mentorship meetings"

I had a great experience studying the AMS Online BA Hons Music and Sound Top Up course. The course covered a broad range of subjects which enabled me to develop in areas I wasn’t as confident in before and eventually excel in these areas throughout my studies.The highlight of the course was the one to one mentorship meetings with my tutor. I highly recommend anyone looking for a career in music to study with AMS.
