Music Talent Scholarship Auditions
- Music Talent Scholarships are available to any prospective first-year student regardless of intended college major/minor.
- Music Talent Scholarships are renewable for four years. Scholarships will be automatically renewed provided that the student is in good academic and social standing and that they continue to participate in Music Department offerings.
- To qualify for a Music Talent Scholarship, a prospective student must have a completed application on file with the Office of Admissions and must submit an audition prior to the deadline. Auditions may be heard prior to submitting an application for admission but scholarship notification will not be sent without an application on file. Notification of scholarships is made by the Office of Financial Aid.
Scheduling a Music Talent Scholarship Audition
On-campus Saturday Music Talent Scholarship Auditions are available for 2024-2025 school year on November 16, 2024, January 25, 2025 or February 1, 2025. Additional on-campus auditions may be scheduled Monday – Friday during the academic year pending faculty availability. We strongly encourage on campus auditions, but will accept electronic submissions if that is not possible due to travel distance.For virtual auditions, students are welcome to use recorded or live accompaniment.

Additional Information for Vocal Auditions
- It is recommended that one of your two selections be in a foreign language, but not required.
- Please do not submit electronic auditions using a handheld microphone as it does not give faculty a clear idea of a student's capabilities.
- We understand that recording technology may vary greatly from student to student. We encourage you to use whatever technology you have to make your recordings. Please do not submit materials that have undergone significant editing or modification.
We will begin reviewing auditions in early September.
