Music Admission and Scholarship Application

This application should be completed by those students wishing to audition as music majors. This application will also be used for reference in music scholarship decisions. Each prospective music major, regardless of performance area, must audition for the Music faculty. Students may audition in multiple areas, though only one award will be offered. 

While most music scholarships are awarded to music majors, there are some awards for non-majors who audition into and participate with an ensemble. If interested in an ensemble award, please complete the ensemble auditions for non-majors form.
