Admission process
The admissions process for higher vocational arts studies differs from the standard procedure in higher education. Before you can be admitted you must first take an admissions exam. This exam will assess whether you fulfil the requirements. Each specialization has its own audition process with appropriate selection criteria and additional requirements.


The content of the entrance exam is geared to the demands the specialized study and subsequent professional practice will make on the student. Auditions will be conducted by a committee composed of teachers.

The auditions are generally in the months May, June and July. To participate in the audition you need to pay audition fee.
€ 60 Rotterdam Conservatoire
