• The School of Music requires an audition on your principle instrument(s) or voice.  You must be accepted on an instrument or voice in order to undertake composition study.  This is because you will also study your instrument for, generally, two years.
• For the Composition Program, please submit two representative scores of music you have composed.  Recordings are appreciated, but not necessary.  These may be sent directly to the Coordinator of Composition, Mark Engebretson.
• Please include a short essay on yourself:  what kind of music do you listen to, what kind of music do you write?  What are your career goals?  What would you like to do creatively?

--Regular School of Music scholarships are available, and there is even a special scholarship for incoming undergraduate composition majors (see link).

--For more help with the application and audition process, please contact Dianna Carter at (336) 334-3638 or send her email following this link.

--Scores, recordings and essays may be sent to Mark Engebretson, School of Music, University North Carolina Greensboro, P.O. Box 26170, Greensboro, NC 27402-6170
