Very few programs at the Conservatory of Music typically accept applications for Spring admission. If you are interested in Spring admission, please send an email to music@purchase.edu to find out if the major you want to pursue at the Conservatory will be accepting applications for Spring. If your intended program is open to the receipt of Spring applications, all pre-screening materials and audition fee must be submitted through Slideroom by October 15. Live auditions for Spring take place in early November.
We will hold Fall auditions for all programs (dates for specific programs will be published in September ). In order to qualify for a live audition, all applicants must first apply for admission to Purchase College; and they must also submit all pre-screening materials and audition fee through Slideroom . Only students who have a successful pre-screening audition will be called back for a live audition. Students who do not pass the pre-screening audition will not be eligible for admission to the Conservatory.
