Music at Butler Weekend - Auditions

We strongly encourage you to audition for Butler University's Jordan College of Fine Arts School of Music during a Music at Butler Weekend. Each weekend is packed with activities and information designed to give you a glimpse inside the School of Music at Butler. The schedule begins on Friday morning with a message from the JCFA associate dean followed by chair of the School of Music. Throughout the day you will have the opportunity to spend time with current music students and faculty, observe classes and rehearsals, attend interest sessions, tour the Jordan College of Fine Arts complex and Clowes Memorial Hall, as well as tour the Butler University campus. You'll even get to test out the cafeteria food! We believe this experience will give you an inside look at what we mean by Music at Butler, and will ultimately help you make an informed college decision.

As part of the Music at Butler Weekend, you have the option to stay on campus Friday night with a music student host. This will allow you to attend a Jordan College of Fine Arts music performance and experience a little bit of campus life. (After all, there's more to college than practice rooms.)

Auditions begin mid-day on Friday and continue through late afternoon. It may be necessary for some areas to continue auditions on Saturday morning, but only after Friday spots are filled. Exact audition times are subject to change, so audition schedules are distributed during Friday morning registration. The program is scheduled to close by noon on Saturday.

To schedule your audition and other Music at Butler Weekend activities please follow the application procedures outlined here. You can find Music at Butler Weekend dates and audition requirements here.
