Auditions

General Information

     Anyone interested in being a music major must first pass an audition. Audition days occur several times during each spring semester and may be arranged during fall semesters if necessary. 

     You should audition one semester prior to beginning your music curriculum. For example, if you are planning to attend NC A&T in the fall of 2009, then your audition should occur in the spring of 2009. If you are already enrolled at A&T and would like to change majors, you would need to audition one semester before registering for music classes.
