Applicants must submit official or self-reported transcripts, with optional ACT/SAT scores. Three letters of recommendation are required: one from a school counselor and two from teachers of major academic courses. Auditions or recordings should total 7-15 minutes, featuring unedited solo performances or compositions, with optional accompaniment for singing. Composers must submit a score alongside their recording. Do not submit ensemble or choral performances unless you were a featured soloist. Recordings should be trimmed to highlight solo sections or specify performance times. Additional requirements include contrasting style selections and, for composers, a detailed score submission.
