All music majors will be required to participate in private lessons. Lessons are assigned based on auditions in order to place students in situations that will best enhance their educational experience. This collaborative process allows students a better chance to excel in their studies.

Also, note that students seeking scholarship funding must audition before a faculty panel. Scholarship information is also available.
