Supplementary Materials
While we request that the submission of supplementary credentials be kept to a minimum, there may be occasions where such credentials provide information that the standard application does not. As a result, some recommendations are detailed below. If you plan to submit supplementary credentials, please follow the instructions below instead of those in The Common Application Arts Supplement. Applicants should not submit the Common Application Arts Supplement. Please note that we specifically ask that you do not send collections of award certificates and the like and explicitly direct that you refrain from submitting your application in binders or folders.
Students submitting a music supplement should select two works contrasting in period and tempo. Students will choose from one of three possible types of submissions:
Students in rare circumstances may submit two music supplements only when their talent is equally impressive in two different areas within music performance or composition.
Live auditions are not part of the admissions process, but auditions for private lessons and selective ensembles are held for enrolled students at the start of each academic year.
Candidates applying to the Columbia-Juilliard Exchange should still submit materials for Columbia faculty to assess their talent and potential.
Students submitting a visual arts supplement should select up to 20 digital images that highlight the best work in their portfolio.
Live portfolio reviews are not part of the admissions process.
Finally, please be advised that while we welcome the submission of such credentials-providing they follow the directions outlined above-and we often request that our faculty evaluate submitted supplements, we can provide no guarantee that all materials will be reviewed or evaluated, as they are not required for the admission process.
