Observe a Class or Rehearsal

If you'd like to sit in on a class or rehearsal, email musicadmissions@depaul.edu, and we can coordinate that for you! Please email us at least two weeks in advance of your visit date to allow ample time to create an itinerary for you. Classes/rehearsals are not always available for observation due to testing or term breaks, and classes/rehearsals are limited on Fridays. ​
