Part-time students participate in orchestra and elective classes only and attend AFA only in the mornings (e.g., from 8:45-12:00). They do not participate in chamber music or receive private lessons. By participating in orchestra, students must be available each morning during one of the ranges of dates given below so that they may rehearse and perform the selected repertory with the orchestra. Applicants unable to fulfill both the rehearsal and performance requirement will not be permitted to enroll on a part-time basis.

Students may apply for any of the part-time dates listed below. Please note that you wish to attend part-time on your application in the "schedule conflicts" section:

• June 15 through June 27 inclusive (performance on June 27)
• June 15 through July 7 inclusive (performance on July 7)
• June 29 through July 18 inclusive (performance on July 18)
• July 8 through July 18 inclusive (performance on July 18)

Admissions preference will be given to orchestral applicants who are able to attend AFA for the full five-week program.

Double Majors/Private Lessons Only
AFA does not permit students to enroll in more than one department. However, students who wish to explore other programs or instruments may elect to sign up for private lessons in another department (e.g., an orchestra student may sign up for voice lessons or a piano student may sign up for composition lessons). While students do not take part in the full offerings of that department, they are able to explore other music interests beyond their immediate area.

Depending on the number of lessons, students can expect to pay between $90 and $150 in addition to their tuition for private lessons in another area. Lessons will be scheduled individually with the teacher dependant on on scheduling.

Please indicate on your application and/or enrollment forms if you are interested in this before the start of the Conservatory.
