*In addition to completing this form, please submit a video recording of two contrasting selections displaying your current playing ability. Electronic submissions are preferred — send upload and send a link (ex. YouTube, SoundCloud, Google Drive, or Dropbox) to cindy.thong@acadiau.ca 

The video submission is largely to provide faculty members a better idea of where you are at, to better customize a program for the student experience. As such, this can be a work in progress and recorded with a phone, or perhaps your latest Kiwanis festival performance. 

Full and partial scholarships available based on video submissions. 

Late registrations may be accepted, space permitting.

If you have any additional questions, please don't hesitate to contact Cindy Thong at cindy.thong@acadiau.ca
