Good to Know

Application Logistics

The Dramatic Media minor does not require an audition for program admission.

Students seeking a performance scholarship apply to TLU first, then submit the performing-arts audition application and reference form.

Current Cycle

The official performing-arts page still publishes 2025-26 audition dates; 2026-27/Fall 2027 dates are not yet published.

What's The Process

Audition Process

Scholarship applicants complete an audition and personal interview in person, or a virtual interview plus recorded submission.

Performers prepare a 2-5 minute performance; technicians/designers, writers, and digital artists present the applicable portfolio or work sample.

The official scholarship page removed its schedule list; the live registration form (apply.tlu.edu/register/dmauditionapplication) still offers only Saturday, November 15, 2025; Monday, February 16, 2026; Saturday, March 28, 2026; and Saturday, April 11, 2026 — all now elapsed. 2026-27/Fall 2027 dates are not yet published.
