Portfolio guidance

Your portfolio is an important part of the admissions process. It should contain the strongest examples of music you have performed, recorded, mixed, composed or arranged.

Portfolio guidance for Music BA

Please provide at least three examples of your musical work. These can include:  

  • sound/video recordings of your performance work 
  • original audio recordings which you have recorded, mixed, composed or arranged 

We recommend that you upload your work to a media hosting site such as YouTube.com or Soundcloud.com and provide us with the links.  

You should also include a brief description of your role/s in the recordings and videos you provide. Are you the performer, composer, producer or recording engineer? Is the piece a cover, remix or an original composition? This information should be provided in a supporting document.  

Please also state any music qualifications or short courses you have not already included in your application, such as graded music exams.

If you have any problems uploading your portfolio, please contact our admissions team via email: study@kent.ac.uk or telephone: +44 (0)1227 768896 for assistance.
