Continuing students can register quickly and easily on-line, by phone, by fax, or in person. The annual registration fee is applied to fall semester tuition for continuing students.
New students wishing to register for private lessons should fill out a registration form (on-line, by phone, by fax, or in person) and speak with the Music Program director for appropriate placement with a teacher.
Class and ensemble registration can easily be done at the same time as lesson registration. All classes and ensembles are subject to minimum and maximum enrollments.
