All completed applications will be considered by the admissions committee within 14 days of receipt. Applicants should expect to hear from Admissions about two weeks after their completed application is received by the Sewanee Summer Music Festival office.
Upon acceptance by the Sewanee Summer Music Festival office, students will be notified by first class US mail of the Admissions Committee's decision. The accepted student must remit a reservation deposit of $250 within two weeks (14 days) of the date on the acceptance letter in order to reserve a place in the 2009 Festival. A student's position in the student body will be secured once the reservation deposit is received by the Festival office.
Returning students need not send recordings and letters of recommendation. Acceptance will be based on a review of previous year's teacher evaluations. Requests for financial aid from new applicants as well as returning students will require a full applications process, recording included, before aid is awarded.
The Sewanee Summer Music Festival does not recommend applications from students interested in limited involvement with the Festival. The Festival office encourages all its attending students to attend for the entire 5 weeks and not portions there of. Financial aid will be given only to those students attending the entire 5 week session.
