What happens after you apply

1. We’ll be in touch

Once your application is in, our Future Students Team will contact you to confirm your details and answer any questions. If your course requires an audition, they’ll invite you to book one.

2. Your audition or submission

What this looks like depends on the course:

If you’re applying for Bachelor of Music (Performance) – you’ll audition in person at our Sydney or Melbourne campus. Auditions run year-round, so you choose a time that works around your other commitments. If you’re based elsewhere in Australia or overseas, you can submit your audition online instead.

If you’re applying for Bachelor of Music Theatre – you’ll record and upload your submission, then selected applicants are invited to an on-campus callback. Both stages have fixed dates, so check them before you apply.

For all other courses – there’s no in-person audition. You’ll submit a portfolio online in your chosen field, and some courses include a short phone interview.
