Opportunity 3: IMW Higher Education

Currently, I am enrolled 20-week diploma in Music Production at the IMW campus. Thinking about how I may progress my specialist skills further, I considered continuing my IMW training with their DipHE/Degrees in September 2025. The higher-level training will prepare me to become a professional Creative in the studio, DJ Producer, Sound Engineer/Producer, for work in Sound to Picture or Sound for Games. The courses are accredited by the University of East London (UEL) and are eligible for full funding from the Student Loan Company (SFE).

Conclusion

In conclusion my enrolment gives me the opportunity for enrolling higher education course at IMW. I would be creatively and musically challenged and networking with other creatives sustaining creative work. However, already being a graduate sound arts student if I were to be enrolled IMW higher education I would be finically needing Student Finance Englands support. Already outstanding a loan from my first degree I fear I wouldn’t be accept to be finically supported via student loan.
