What will I learn?

Students entering this program should have a strong background in music. This should include performance experience with a specific instrument or voice type.All students must pass an audition in order to declare a music performance major. To schedule an audition, students must fill out a separate application to the School of Music, which is available online at https://music.ua.edu/apply-audition/undergraduates/undergraduate-audition-request/.Auditions typically take place between January and March prior to fall enrollment. Upon successful audition, students are expected to declare a major formally no later than the fourth semester of full-time enrollment (or at 61 semester hours for transfer students). Students can declare a major by completing the Change of Major/Minor Application online under the Student tab of myBama.
