In addition to successfully completing an audition on their principal instrument or voice, prospective students will also submit a portfolio and complete an interview with the composition faculty. The interview and audition will be scheduled for the same day.
Prospective students will submit their portfolio materials in their MyMountaineer portal. If you are a current App State student, please email your portfolio materials to processing@appstate.edu. The portfolio should include scores and recordings of 2-4 compositions (in both PDF and MP3 formats). Contact Dr. Andrew Hannon at hannonac@appstate.edu with questions.
Materials must be submitted at least a week before your audition. Please contact us at music@appstate.edu if you have any questions.
