Pursuing Music Composition at Ohio State
- Students interested in music composition should develop performance skills in preparation for the School of Music entrance audition. Piano lessons and music theory classes are also recommended, if available. All students planning to pursue a music major complete an entrance audition and the Theory Placement Exam. Normally students do this during the senior year in high school on a scheduled Audition Day. Transfer students and students already at Ohio State should also plan to complete an audition and the TPE.
