Begin the audition process by filling out the application form by clicking on the button below. This form helps the director learn more about your musical and leadership experiences. If you forget an item or wish to add more content, please email the Band Office at band-office@byu.edu or you may submit the form again.
Send recommendation form link to your band director to submit. (Click button below to go to form and then copy the URL) You will receive a confirmation email from the Band Office notifying you when your director has submitted the form.
Materials are password protected. Passwords will be emailed beginning March 1 to applicants who have submitted an Intent to Audition.
A link will be sent to you once we receive your application.
Positions are awarded as qualified players audition. Announcements of membership and scholarship awards will be sent mid June. Color Guard members will receive acceptance a few weeks after the audition. Please be considerate and patient, as we receive between 350-400 applications for the band each year. Some notifications may be sent as late as the end of June, depending on the number of auditions received.
Additional audition recordings will be accepted until the band is completely staffed. Those who audition late have a much lower chance of getting a position. We urge prospective members to audition as soon as possible.
After you receive notification of acceptance into the band, you can register for the marching band class (Music 322R, Section 1). Registration is through MyMap on your myBYU account.
If you have any questions about your audition or anything else, please see the frequently asked questions or send us a message.
