Notification of Admission
The Admissions Committee considers application materials along with the audition report, and a notification of the decision is made within four weeks. Accepted students are asked to return a signed enrollment agreement along with a $500 deposit to indicate their intention to enroll. This commitment will reserve a space for the accepted student in the desired term.

Deferment
An applicant may request to defer enrollment for a maximum of one year from the original application term. Deferment beyond one year may require a reapplication of the admissions materials, and the Admissions Committee may require the applicant to re-audition.

Campus Visit
Although the Academy does not permit auditing of classes, prospective students are welcome to visit the school by appointment to view the facilities and to get a sense of the atmosphere and environment. Visits may be scheduled through the Office of Admissions.
