Admissions Auditions
Acceptance to the University does not assure acceptance as a music major. Entering music majors are expected to demonstrate a high level of musical achievement and aptitude. All incoming majors and minors must audition and take a musicality test before acceptance into the Department of Music is granted. Specific audition repertoire is required for each instrument.
In addition to the performance audition, interviews will be held for those wishing to major as pianists or vocalists in music education/choral general. Pianists interested in this major must also prepare a vocal selection in addition to their piano audition.
Those interested in majoring in Music Theory/Composition must audition on their instrument and bring samples of their compositions to present at an interview with theory/composition faculty.
