Important Notes
Confirming Your Enrollment
You must confirm your enrollment before you will be able to register for NPO.
Mandatory Requirement: All B.M. (Theory or Vocal Performance), B.M.A. or B.M.E. (Music Education) students are required to complete an audition to be admitted to the Department of Music.
This audition allows the student to be considered for Music Department admission and scholarship. Music Auditions must be completed prior to the last audition date (usually in April) before registering for classes at NPO. Students may register for an audition at www.dbu.edu/audition-dates. For additional questions, contact musicauditions@dbu.edu or (214) 333-5390.
Students interested in studying Music or Commercial Music, or those who have not completed an audition, may start their course of study in the non-auditioned music degrees (BA/BS Music or BA/BS Commercial Music) and complete an audition in the Fall.
