Applicants living in remote areas and those unable to attend the audition/ interview/theory test may apply to send a video to satisfy the audition requirements for performance. Remote composition or music production applicants should send a portfolio of pieces together with a curriculum vitae. The music theory proficiency test must be conducted by an AMEB-qualified music teacher. Call (02) 6620 3831 to check eligibility for remote audition.

Applicants will be mailed instructions relating to the audition process (dates, venues). If unable to attend, call the University on (02) 6620 3831 to check eligibility and make alternative arrangements. If you have not been contacted by the University by early November, call (02) 6620 3831.

Additional information: Students undertaking double degrees with Law are candidates for both degrees and are able to complete the two degrees with five years’ full-time study rather than the six normally required. With the exception of 336113, the degrees are not available via distance education, but it is possible to enrol in a heavier workload during the earlier years of the course so the final year may be completed outside the Lismore area.

* Admission criteria may change as the Contemporary Music degree is currently under review. For further information visit www.scu.edu.au/music.
