Royal Irish Academy of Music

Live audition (two contrasting pieces) plus interview, written theory and aural tests; Grade 6 RIAM Local Centre/ABRSM theory recommended as a minimum standard

No SAT/ACT, CAO points, or any standardized academic test appears anywhere in RIAM's own BMus entry requirements -- admission runs entirely on a live audition (two contrasting pieces, interview, written theory and aural tests), not a points or test-score bar. A genuinely new institution type among the schools listed here: an audition-based conservatoire, an Associated College of Trinity College Dublin (accredited by TCD since 2013) rather than a standalone university -- same honest 'no test path at all' pattern as the existing Royal Academy of Music and Falmouth entries. Kept 'partial' since the full academic-matriculation section of RIAM's own entry-requirements page wasn't independently re-confirmed beyond this course page.
