My daughter auditioned today at West Chester University and was accepted into the vocal performance department. This was her first audition - 5 more to go. Everything was handled well by the school. They were scored on theory, aural skills and performance on an instrument. They had to get a certain score on each to get admitted. We were there at 8:00, testing started at 9, her audition was at 10 and we had the results by 11:15. She had four teachers as adjudicators and she found them to be very welcoming and they went out of their way to make her feel comfortable. The recital hall was unavailable, but the choral room had really nice acoustics. All of the practice rooms were made available so there was lots of room for warming up - and each is equipped with a Steinway piano. The new music building is state of the art and lovely.
