Future Music Educators Day

Thursday, October 24, 2024, 8:45am-4:00pm

All Faiths Chapel and McCain Auditorium
Hosted by the Division of Music Education
Sponsored by K-State School of Music Theatre, and Dance

This event is for any high school senior interested in majoring in music education! This day helps students experience a typical day as a music major through the lens of the K-State music program. Though hosted by K-State, the primary goal is to help students discover if majoring in music is right for them!

Participants will have the opportunity to visit campus, observe classes and ensembles, talk with current music students, get advice on preparing to be a music major, and ask questions to the faculty.

Registration is open!

Register now for Future Music Educators Day! A registration needs to be completed for each student.

Parents are an integral part of the college process. Accordingly, parents are certainly allowed to attend with their student, though this day is geared towards high school students and parent attendance is not required.
