Thank you for your interest in the Augsburg Music Department! We encourage you to participate in music throughout your college experience, regardless of what major you choose. Music Exploration Day and Fine Arts Scholarships are open to all interested incoming students.

Music Exploration Day is your opportunity to discover Music at Augsburg, meet our highly talented and caring instructors, and learn more about your individualized opportunities in the music program. If you are considering majoring in music, it is vitally important that you attend this full-day event.  Should you be unable to attend, contact the music office as soon as possible to assure that your application receives full consideration.

All students, regardless of major, are eligible for a Music Fine Arts Scholarship. ​​If you have applied for, are thinking of applying or are coming to campus to accept a Music Fine Arts Scholarship, please plan to perform on your primary instrument or voice for scholarship consideration. Vocalists should prepare two contrasting pieces. Instrumentalists should prepare a solo piece, ideally with contrasting styles. Incoming students must have a completed application to Augsburg University submitted by Friday, January 11, 2019 for consideration.  Please note, you may have already been awarded a Music Fine Arts Scholarship but need to formally accept your scholarship with a performance assessment.
