RA Schools Studios

The RA Schools offers Europe's only free, three year postgraduate arts programme. We welcome artists working in all media and representing a diverse range of positions and approaches. Students work closely with each other, with an emphasis on constructive critique and peer learning. 

Our students receive a studio space whatever the nature of your practice, as spacious and open plan as possible. Students have access to specialist workshops in all media and instruction in new skills and technical support in realising projects is available.

A full programme of lectures, seminars and visiting artists forms the structure of the working week and exposes students to new voices and methodologies.

The RA Schools does not charge tuition fees to anyone. It is part of the Royal Academy of Arts and is supported by the RA’s endowment, by corporate supporters, trusts and foundations, Friends of the Royal Academy, individual patrons and fundraising events.
