Applicant FAQ
How many students are in the studio?
Typically 12-16 music majors or minors. Each year the number of students in the studio changes depending on how many students graduate the year before and how many are accepted.
Is it possible to visit the campus and Professor Witek prior to my audition?
Yes! You can set up a visit through our Hi-Notes program. Hi Notes are days custom-made to meet your needs as a music student. They provide you with a shadowing opportunity with a fellow music student, a class schedule for you based on intended major, a chance to meet with Dr. Witek and have a mini lesson, a meeting with your admission counselor, eat lunch with current students and take a tour of the university's historic campus. Basically, they give you the chance to be a Stetson University student for a day! This is a fantastic visit option for prospective music students. For more information, see the Visit Stetson University website.
