Admission to the Music Major

Begin by completing our . Admission to the Music major requires an audition in person or by Zoom on Saturday, February 15, 2025, or by video submission. Early decision applicants should schedule an audition by emailing musicauditions@american.edu.

Please be prepared to perform about 10 minutes of music. Select pieces that best represent your abilities. We welcome a broad range of approaches and styles.

All auditionees will be automatically considered for merit scholarships. Most scholarships are renewable for up to four years provided the terms of the award are met each semester.

Auditions may be performed with or without accompaniment. If you are a composer, upload your music to Slideroom; we would still like to hear you play or sing at the audition.

Note that in order to be admitted to the major, you must also be accepted by 小蓝视频. Students intending to declare the Music major in their first year should audition either before enrolling or during the Fall of their first term.
