A fresh perspective does wonders for your life and your music—and travel can be the best way to see things differently. That's why we offer °Ä6ͼ¿â students the opportunity to study at select institutions around the world. °Ä6ͼ¿â partners with schools to set up direct reciprocal exchanges, which are student-for-student exchanges involving two teachers of the same instrument.

How to Study Abroad

If you're a °Ä6ͼ¿â student interested in spending a semester at one of our partner schools, you'll start by discussing the possibility with your principal teacher. Your teacher will be able to recommend international colleagues who would be a good fit for you. You'll need to go through the normal admission process at the institution where you want to study, and you might also need to prepare by studying a new language or taking other prerequisite classes.

How to Study at °Ä6ͼ¿â

If you're an international student interested in studying at °Ä6ͼ¿â, we have several options for you. Undergraduates may enroll in our Artist Certificate Program; graduate students enter the Professional Studies Program. Consult your current school's international-exchange personnel for details. You must apply to °Ä6ͼ¿â by March 15 for the following academic year. A DVD audition is required. For more information, please contact the °Ä6ͼ¿â Admissions Office at admission@cim.edu.
