Te uiui me nga kōwhiri,
When you apply to study for a Bachelor of Commercial Music, you'll need to attend either an audition or a consultation, depending on what major you choose.
Book your audition or consultation
Please select a time for your audition or consultation related to the major(s) you are interested in. All sessions are conducted in a 30-minute video call. You will receive an email with additional information about your session before your scheduled appointment.
Auditions and consultations for the 2024 academic year are now closed. Please check back in July for 2025 applications.
Music Practice
You'll be required to perform one original composition on your instrument as well as a short creative exercise and answer a few questions about your musical interests. Electronic (i.e. computer, controller or DJ-based) performances are also accepted. We welcome all compositional and performative styles from all cultures and world views. You must complete an audition if you are applying for Music Practice.
Music Technology
At the consultation, you will get to speak with an academic staff member to determine if the music technology major is right for you; booking a consultation does not commit you to the music technology major. You will need to write a short statement (250-500 words).
Music Industry
At the consultation, you will get to speak with an academic staff member to determine if the music industry major is right for you; booking a consultation does not commit you to the music industry major. You will need to write a short statement (250-500 words).
If you would like to speak directly to a lecturer or a member of our administration team, send us an email at commercialmusic@massey.ac.nz.
Apply for Massey University admission
After booking an admission or consultation, your next step is to apply for admission to Massey University. This doesn't commit you to a major, and there is plenty of time for you to change your mind.
International students
If you're an international student, you need to apply for admission before you book an audition or consultation.
