Auditions & Interviews

Join The Hartt School!

Auditions and interviews are conducted for all programs on campus as well as in select cities around the United States.

Undergraduate Audition Information

In order to schedule an audition, students must apply to the University of Hartford.

• How to schedule your audition: Upon submission, applicants will receive an email with a link to The Hartt School supplemental application.

• Acceptd applications: Applicants may also apply through Acceptd. Applicants will select their preferred audition/interview dates on the application. Once the application has been processed, the applicant will receive a confirmation email with the audition/interview date and schedule.

Graduate Audition Information

Graduate level conducting, music education, artist diploma, and doctoral applicants will need to submit preliminary recordings.

Upon favorable review of the preliminary conducting video, applicants will be scheduled for the in-person instrumental conducting audition/interview on this date. Choral Conducting applicants will be contacted directly by the chair of the Choral Conducting program to establish the audition date.

Note: All graduate conducting, Artist Diploma, and Doctor of Musical Arts applicants must audition/interview in person on one of the established on-campus audition days due to the level of application and entrance testing requirements. For the same reason, PhD applicants must come to campus for interviewing and testing on a date to be arranged by the Music Education division.
