Admission to the School of Music is contingent on admission to the University. You must have applied to Texas State before you schedule your audition for admission to the School of Music. In addition to meeting University admission criteria, students intending to major in music must audition on their principal instrument or voice. Admission will be based upon the audition and the available space in each studio. Moreover, a successful audition does not automatically ensure acceptance to the University. Prospective music majors will not be permitted to enroll in applied music and other music majors classes until successfully passing the audition.
Auditions are held periodically throughout the year for enrollment the following academic year. Entering students intending to study composition must submit a portfolio of original compositions; audio tapes are encouraged. Those prospective music students unable to audition in person due to geographic distance from the campus may submit an audio or video cassette recording representative of their performing abilities. The deadline for tape submission is April 1 (Fall admission) and November 1 (Spring admission).
