Virtual Interview
Over the summer, faculty will review materials and respond within 1-2 weeks for Fall 2021 admission. Please be patient as our faculty are also engaged in their professional work during this time. This may or may not require a virtual interview as well. Please choose "Other" in the drop-down menu below.
Audition or Interview*
The typical in-person audition day starts at 8:30 a.m. and ends around 2 p.m.

All intended majors, aside from Composition & Technology, must perform an instrumental/vocal audition. Composition & Technology students will participate in an interview. Please review the music undergraduate audition requirements for more information.

Students interested in department-level scholarships must complete their audition by March 1 for priority consideration.

While an in-person audition or interview is highly recommended, we understand some applicants may need to submit digitally and meet virtually.
