An Absence Request Form must be submitted and approved by the Conservatory in advance of accepting any outside commitments.

ABSENCE REQUEST FOR PROFESSIONAL ACTIVITIES*

Any absence for outside professional activities (even very brief periods of time, e.g, auditions, performances, etc.) will only be deemed an excused absence upon Conservatory approval, following submission of the completed Absence Request Form as stated above. We will do our very best to respond to requests as quickly as possible.

*Important: Students should not accept outside professional engagements that occur during the school year without first receiving permission from the conservatory.
