Application Logistics
•Bullet: Apply via Common App, selecting a "Music" major
•Bullet: Within 1-2 business days, receive an email to log into your DU application status page
•Bullet: Complete the Lamont School of Music supplemental application on your status page
•Bullet: Upload your music resume, repertoire list, and recorded video audition (if not auditioning live) via the status page
•Bullet: Early applicants must complete their audition in the fall
•Bullet: You cannot apply early and audition during the Regular Decision timeline — the audition timeline must match the application timeline
•Bullet: Submitting the Common App under an eligible admission plan starts portal access; choosing Early Action or Early Decision is not required solely to unlock the Lamont supplement.
•Bullet: Early Decision is binding. Early Action and Regular Decision are nonbinding.
•Bullet: Lamont publishes a fall audition timeline for Early Action/Early Decision. Its Fall 2027 page does not specify a separate Early Decision II audition or portfolio-review timetable; confirm that timing with Lamont before choosing ED II.
•Bullet: For international first-year music applicants, DU’s international checklist directs applicants to Regular Decision, while the Fall 2027 Lamont page lists early rounds without resolving that restriction. Confirm eligibility with Lamont before choosing an early round.
