Visiting us on campus
One of the best ways to really get a feel for a school is to see the spaces and meet the people!
School of Music Information Sessions and Tours
The School of Music has returned to in person tours of the Holtschneider Performance Center, including Jarvis Opera Hall and information sessions every weekday at 1:30pm. Register here for the tours and information sessions.
Please note: Masks are not required inside the Holtschneider Performance Center spaces and concert halls. At the same time, DePaul University continues to be a mask-friendly campus and wearing a mask will be highly recommended for all indoor spaces.
To take a virtual tour of the Holtschneider Performance Center, including Jarvis Opera Hall, please email musicadmissions@depaul.edu. You can also take a full campus virtual tour here .
