I like this building, it’s very friendly stuff here, very close to RCS building, I like the furniture here, the atmosphere in student campus! The one things - is WiFi not working in elevator, but it’s really small thing. And lot of fire alarms😅 But anyway I’m strongly recommend this accommodation!

I'm an undergrad music student. RCS is an excellent conservatoire with nice facilities and caring staff. We're always busy - there are SO many projects and performance opportunitites. SU is very caring but basically no societies because everyone is so engrossed in their studies. Glasgow is a fab city and the conservatoire is right in the center. I've made great friends in RCS, the institution attracts very creative and warm-hearted people, especially those who are unafraid to think outside of the box. Alumni do well for themselves too! Highly recommend.
I love studying in RCS, the staff is great and very welcoming, we get lots of various opportunities and meet lots of interesting people.
Osaretin is amazing! So friendly! I love living here!
Being in Uni is great and the staff and teachers are lovely, the only downside is it’s hard to get onto the wifi sometimes which takes a while but all in all pretty good practice rooms and the environment is amazing!
I'm overall satisfied. We're busy so I understand not much social activities
The Royal Conservatoire of Scotland has excellent specialist programmes providing unique and necessary education to its students.
Great school with lovely atmosphere
Great place to study, with many different courses on offer
Great staff, many concerts all the time!
Friendly social campus and great place to study
I am at the Wallace Studios most of the time so I can't really comment on the main building but the ballet studios are fantastic and we are very lucky as other ballet schools do not have similar level facilities.

Such a warm, welcoming environment with likeminded creatives.
Lovely people and great musicians. I love the broad range of courses and people at the college
I’m loving it here so much! fantastic environment and the music is incredible
I am happy with how the building works and the facilities. Some things have improved since I first arrived and I can’t wait to see the results of the current work in progress!
Top-class faculty, wonderful facilities, and an environment that is truly about companionship and camaraderie, and not about individual competition. I can't think of a better place in the entire world for me to receive my education, and I wish I didn't have to leave :)
The RCS has great facilities, and really considers accessibility, diversity, and health and safety. It is a really safe space which provides engaging teaching, as well as environments to collaborate and perform creatively.
Incredible school with an incredible atmosphere. The training and care for its students is top tier.
RCS is an amazing place to study!! The staff and teachers are so supportive, understanding and very encouraging. The bonds you make with students not from your course but others within RCS is truly amazing. The resources available to students is fantastic and the Conservatoire really care about the health and well-being of students as they truly want the best for their students.
The Royal Conservatoire of Scotland is an amazing place to study music, there are lots of activities and things you could do in order to become a better artist, and they will really care for you and your career goals.
I like RCS but a main issue is that the building is too hot all the time. Also there is no signal in a lot of the building and it’s quite a hard place to navigate. However I do like the location and the atmosphere inside.
I have loved my first few weeks at RCS. It’s been amazing being around so many creative people with a passion for the arts just like me.
The Conservatoire is an incredible University! The space is filled with the most creative minds from all around the world, creating an atmospheric buzz all the time. The societies and Clubs are diverse allowing everyone to be involved and included. The Student Union are organized, friendly and always supportive of your ideas or queries. RCS advocates for everyone and makes it their job to provide the best possible utilities and spaces.
There are no societies. A lot of rooms are run down
Great place to study!!! I have really loved being here!
RCS has amazing facilities and staff with a great sense of community
As an international student, RCS is one of the schools that has been very helpful. As a dancer and an artist RCS really is a space for you to grow and learn. Couldn’t ask for a better school.
RCS is the perfect place for me to study towards the career of my dreams. In the BMus Vocal Studies Department, there are competitions held for all years every session, which include various genres. There are also Performance Platforms held every month. These opportunities allow every student to gain valuable performance experience. The practice rooms are great and have everything you need in them. The main Renfrew Street building is great and all the facilities including IT studios and such are mostly reliable. RCS certainly isn't the place for everyone but it is very attractive, and for good reason.
Lovely campus, brilliant and supportive staff!
Great place to study. I can’t speak for the Renfrew side of things as I study in the Wallace building, but the staff there go above and beyond to provide the best university experience for its students.
Fantastic place with tolerant and diverse people.
The uni is in a great location, staff are kind and helpful
I have no words ro describe how lovely it is here. It's like living a dream. The teachers are so kind, understanding and welcoming!
Staff are supportive but amenities can be improved
Building is excellent with plenty of practice rooms to use and performance opportunities. Brilliant cafe and study areas too.
I love this school more than you can imagine
Facilities are only fine, judging for how much I've paid. School structures very confusing, security not very good, people can go in and out as they wish.
They're always listening to feedback!
I do recommend this school for music and drama, but not for the film course. I found it unorganised, very few lessons, and I learnt more by myself than in three years in this course. I recommend an internship instead of this school.
Be aware when leaving any small children with music tutors. Some have low tolerance for creatures that might carry colds, or not concentrate for the duration of their lessons in which case they might choose to be less than professional in their treatment of said child.
