CD/DVD Audition Guidelines

Requirements for recorded auditions are identical to live auditions. Please send the recording to:

Dr. Whitney Prince, Admissions Coordinator
EMU Department of Music and Dance
101 Alexander Music Building
Ypsilanti, MI 48197

Deadline: November 1 for Winter term admission; May 1 for Fall term admission

Undergraduate applicants who submit a recorded audition must still successfully complete the Music Theory Assessment Exam. Those applying to be admitted into the Music Education or Music Therapy degrees must also successfully complete the Program Interview to be admitted into the Department of Music and Dance. These applicants should contact Dr. Prince (jprince@emich.edu) to schedule these admissions requirements. Students unable to visit campus in advance will be scheduled for testing, interview, and advising (if admitted) the day before the semester begins.

Graduate applicants who submit a recorded audition can be conditionally admitted to the Department of Music and Dance based on a successful audition, but must still successfully complete the Program Interview and take the Graduate Music Theory Placement Exam to be fully admitted. These applicants should contact Dr. Prince (jprince@emich.edu) to schedule these admissions requirements. Students unable to visit campus in advance will be scheduled for testing, interview, and, if admitted, advising the day before the semester begins.
