Admissions

The University of Pittsburgh practices rolling admission, so there is no specific application deadline. To apply now, or for more information about applying to Pitt, carefully review the University's Office of Admissions and Financial Aid websites. The sooner we receive your application, the sooner you will be informed of our decision. OAFA administers undergraduate financial aid packages, including need-based aid, loans, and scholarships.

An audition is not required in order for students admitted to the University of Pittsburgh to declare a Music major or minor. However, incoming freshmen interested in pursuing an undergraduate music program are encouraged to schedule an appointment with Prof. Roger Zahab, Director of Undergraduate Studies, or Dr. Susan Rice, Associate Director of Undergraduate Studies, during the first semester.

Another source of support for undergraduate students is the Office of Undergraduate Research, Scholarship, and Creative Activity. This office provides undergraduates with hands-on, experiential learning opportunities which take place outside the regular classroom environment, but are still tied to the students ongoing coursework.
