Grace period for exams - FAQs

Confused about the rules around the new grace period for exams?? Senior Examiner, Majella Boland, to the rescue! Majella clears up any confusion with the answers to these FAQs!

What is the RIAM grace period?
The current syllabus will be available for an extra exam session.

Does this apply to all instruments?
Yes

Does it apply to all grades?
Yes.

Is the grace period available every year?
Yes, but only for the first session of the new year.

What does this mean for piano exams?
The junior piano albums (Elementary to Grade V) change each calendar year. The grace period means that the 2017 piano album, for example, can be used for the first session in 2018. The senior piano albums follow the duration of the overall syllabus (2015–2018) and can be used in the first exam session in 2019.

Can I use the 2018 piano album in 2017?
No. 2017 can be carried over to 2018 but 2018 cannot be brought forward to 2017.

Can I combine pieces from the 2017 and 2018 piano albums during the grace period session?
No, you must only work from one syllabus.

If I am using the 2017 book, what fee do I pay?
You must pay the fee that is appropriate to the year in which you are taking the exam i.e. if you use the Grade V 2017 book in February 2018, you must pay the 2018 fee.
