Special Admission Requirements

Each undergraduate applicant, first-year or transfer, auditions for admission into the Department of Music. The audition is performed in front of the department's Admissions/Scholarship Committee and also serves as an audition for all departmental scholarships.

How to schedule your audition

The audition can be arranged by filling out the Audition Questionnaire/ Scholarship Application (AQSA) and returning it to the Department of Music. This form acts as your official application for admission to the department as a music major or minor. Three letters or forms of recommendation are also required to complete the application.
