6) How do I pay my fees?
• Fees may be paid by cash, cheque or bank transfer
• If you already a full time student in the School,
you may pay by month, by term, or by year. Fees are
non-refundable except in cases of a serious illness
or exceptional circumstances.
• If you have been accepted into the full-time
programme, you make an advance payment of the first
month of studies in order to reserve your place in the
School. To pay for more than one month in advance is
not compulsory. However, for students applying for a
student visa, the British Authorities may ask a student
to show confirmation of the school payment fees for
one term or one school year in advance as proof of a
sincere committment of study.
• The initial one month advance payment is non-refundable.
In the case of a student paying for more than one month
in advance, and if they fail to obtain a student visa,
the School will refund the entire advance payment minus
the one month fee.
7) Can I get a grant or
funding to study at the mime school?
Many students obtain grants and bursaries from educational,
arts or government bodies in their own countries. For
UK residents, the main funding bodies for professional
theatre training are local authorities and the Arts
Council.
8) How can I find accommodation
in London?
Many students find shared accommodation once they start
at the school, but it is important that you find somewhere
to stay before you arrive in London. Once in London,
you can buy a copy of Loot, a paper with listings for
accommodation. There are a variety of options, from
flat and houseshares to short term lets of single apartments.
A web search will yield a number of websites offering
accommodation, the most popular being www.loot.com.
You may also find information on www.ukcosa.org.uk.
If you arrive without having found an accomodation,
you will be able to count on the solidarity between
students for advices and help. However, the school cannot
provide or be expected to provide accomodation.
9) Am I entitled to National
Health Service treatment?
As a full-time student at the International School of
Corporeal Mime you are entitled to NHS treatment. To
find out more, go to www.ukcosa.org.uk.

The school offers an annual 2-week summer workshop in

full-time mime training. We also offer workshops upon
request to schools, universities and other groups. For
details of these, see our Outreach and Education page
or email us.
11) How can I see the
work of the students at the school?
Steven Wasson and Corinne Soum create a new show with
their students at the end of each school year. The show
is usually performed at the end of june in a theatre
in London. Contact us at the end of May for more details.
