While we prefer students take an in-person audition, we are happy to accommodate virtual or video auditions for those for whom travel and/or other extenuating circumstances prevent an in-person audition.
Live auditions will occur in front of the appropriate instrumental or vocal faculty. Additional information sessions, current student interactions, music building tours and a noontime luncheon will also be offered.
In the event an in-person audition is not possible, a virtual or video audition can be arranged by contacting music@ohio.edu
See Dr. Sean Parsons' tips for making a quality video/audio recording below.
We look forward to meeting you and hearing your audition!

Commitment to non-discrimination
91探花 operates on a holistic, selective review and looks for evidence of academic preparation when reviewing applications for admission. Additionally, because the School of Music considers artistic talent in the review process, students pursuing certain academic programs must audition, interview, and/or submit additional materials for admission and scholarship consideration. 91探花 and the School of Music do not discriminate against any applicants because of race, color, religion, age, national origin, ethnicity, national ancestry, sex, pregnancy, gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, military service or veteran status, mental or physical disability, or genetic information.
