Important information for students applying for music programs

Students applying for a Foundation Studies package with a music program preference are required to complete an audition as part of the application process. The audition must be assessed and approved before a packaged offer can be issued.

  • Onshore applicants will be required to register for and attend an in-person audition.
  • Offshore applicants can submit a recorded audition for assessment. The audition is assessed by Adelaide University’s Elder Conservatorium of Music and School of Performing Arts.

Please allow additional time for your application. The standard 24–48 hour admissions turnaround does not apply to applications that include a music program preference, as the audition must be assessed before the packaged offer can be issued.
