General Information:

The purpose of this audition is to determine a student’s qualifications for admission as a music major.

DVD and VHS Taped Auditions:

• Undergraduate students who live outside of San Diego, Orange, Riverside, Imperial and Los Angeles counties may audition via DVD or VHS tape.
• All performance audition DVDs and VHS tapes should clearly indicate the auditioning student’s name, instrument type, selected repertoire, and date of recording.
• Audio compact discs will be accepted with DVDs or VHS tapes as backup audition performance documentation, not in lieu of DVDs or VHS tapes. 
• While the Scholarship Committee does not expect “professional” level production quality, it is very important that DVDs and VHS tapes have an audio quality sufficient for committee members to clearly hear the auditioning student’s performance.
