Virtual Auditions
Popular and Commercial Music applicants who are unable to attend an on-campus audition, must audition live via Zoom with departmental faculty. Students will receive instructions on how to register for a Zoom Audition Day after submitting an application to the university. Supplemental portfolios are optional and can be submitted through the student's Loyola Application Status Page.

To set up a successful virtual audition, you must have the following:
The right place:
-
A quiet, private area where you can audition undisturbed
The right equipment:
-
A strong internet connection
-
A laptop or desktop with a webcam
-
A USB microphone is highly recommended: Blue Snowball or Blue Snowflake are affordable options.
The right time:
-
Log into your Skype account and be prepared 5-10 minutes in advance of your scheduled audition time
-
Double check your time zone: All auditions are held in Central Time. If you’re in Pacific, Mountain, Eastern Time or another international time zone, you’ll need to plan for the time difference.
