Practice Room Policies
Practice time may be reserved each fall and spring semester, and summer term in which a student is enrolled.
Practice time is reserved as a recurring reservation with two different schedules: Mon-Wed-Fri is one schedule; Tue-Thu-Sat is another schedule; and Sunday is first-come, first-serve use.
The amount of daily practice time that each student is able to reserve is determined by the degree and instrument, and enrollment in qualifying elective classes for the semester in which the student is applying.
To secure reserved practice time, students must apply online. See more information here.
Piano Major students are eligible to schedule practice time in the locked piano major practice rooms. Collaborative Piano Majors are not eligible to schedule practice time in locked piano major practice rooms.
Piano Major students have access to the locked piano practice rooms over winter break. For winter break, the locked piano practice rooms will be available on a first come, first served basis. To allow students to keep their locked piano practice room key over winter break, graduate piano majors are required to keep the same block of locked piano practice rooms for the whole academic year (fall semester, winter break, and spring semester).
Piano Major students have access to the locked piano practice rooms over Thanksgiving Break and Spring Break. The related semester's locked piano practice room reservations remain in effect (fall semester reservations for Thanksgiving Break and spring semester reservations for Spring Break).
