Barnard-Columbia-Juilliard Exchange (B-C-J)

Applicants who have been admitted to and participate in the Exchange while attending Barnard or Columbia have the opportunity of auditioning for the Juilliard Master of Music degree program during their junior year at Barnard or Columbia. Exchange students must apply for the Master of Music by December 1, 2011, and pay the $110 application fee. The pre-screening (if applicable) is waived. The applicant should complete most liberal arts requirements at Barnard or Columbia within three years, while taking major lessons at Juilliard. In the spring of the junior year, the applicant will audition at Juilliard for entrance to the Master of Music program. If admitted, the student will normally spend two subsequent years (three for Voice majors) primarily at Juilliard, while finishing any remaining undergraduate requirements at Barnard or Columbia. Successful completion of all requirements for both institutions will lead to a Bachelor’s from Barnard or Columbia and a Master of Music from Juilliard. If Barnard/Columbia students wish to pursue this option, they should seek counseling at both Juilliard and their home institution on how to make this option work for them.
