Admissions Overview

To be submitted with your music application, this document should highlight musical achievements and experience thus far. Students should feel free to include current and/or previous private instructors, ensemble participation, competitions, volunteer experience, etc. See a sample here. 

Think of at least two (2) music instructors and/or ensemble directors with whom you have studied for a sustained period, and then ask them if they would be willing to write a recommendation for you as a part of your application to the Hodgson School of Music. Your recommenders should be able to speak to your personal work ethic, musical aptitude, and potential as a musician. On the Acceptd application, you will be prompted to provide the names and email addresses of these two recommenders (a third and optional recommender may also be provided). After submitting your application, each of your recommenders will be sent an email with a link to an electronic recommendation form, which they will complete and submit on your behalf. The recommendation form answers will be tied to your application, and will only be visible to Hodgson School of Music faculty and authorized staff.
