Unlike many other public universities, classes are not taught by teaching assistants.

Small classes, individual attention. Auditions are given on selected Saturdays, typically during November, February and April. Applicants to the music major or minor program also must apply to and be accepted into the university. Because the faculty wants to maximize the students potential for success, music is a selective admission program. All music applicants are considered for scholarships during the admission audition.
