Please allow plenty of time for processing of application materials. Auditions Students wishing to enroll as undergraduates or as graduate students in the School of Music must pass an admission audition conducted by the faculty. Auditions may be performed in person or submitted on cassette tape. Live auditions take place on The University of Texas at Austin campus on selected Saturdays throughout the academic year. Appointments are required for an audition.
Accompaniment is optional for instrumental auditions.
Repertoire for instrumental auditions should consist of two or three contrasting pieces from the standard repertoire lasting a total of 10-15 minutes. Make sure nothing is recorded on the tape other than the audition material. Repertoire is the same as for live auditions. Make certain your name and address appear on both the cassette and the tape box. Selecting a Teacher Students who are interested in studying with a specific teacher are advised to communicate directly with that teacher as soon as possible during the application process, because faculty schedules often are filled several months in advance of the school year.
