The UArts Pre-College Summer Institute Music program
This is the country’s most dynamic summer program for passionate high school music students. The exciting and immersive program enables you to experience what a college-level music school is like, and learn from the same nationally recognized professors who teach in our undergraduate programs.
As a student here, you’ll be respected as an independent thinker and treated as an adult in a supportive environment. You will have the opportunity to learn from—and jam with—an eclectic community of students and faculty. And you’ll elevate your talents by learning new forms and techniques, helping you to stand out from other artists and performers.
The program is open to all young musicians, regardless of style. Students are accepted into the program in one of the following performance areas: bass (upright or electric), drum set, guitar, vibes, Latin and Brazilian hand drum, piano, saxophone, trombone, trumpet and voice. While we recognize you may play more than one instrument, we require that you choose one instrument to play and study while enrolled in the program
Located in vibrant downtown Philadelphia,
UArts is footsteps away from world-famous museums, entertainment venues, summer concerts and activities, and opportunities to learn, grow and be inspired. Whether you’ve set your sights on a premier music school, or you are still trying to figure it out, our Summer Institute gives you the chance to live your music, and to experience what a life in music could be like.
TAKE A CLOSE LOOK at our program, call us, and even visit. We think you’ll find that the UArts Summer Institute is an experience that no other art college in the country can match.
