<p>Are most members of a cappella groups at NU music majors? How hard is it to get into an a cappella group at NU?</p>
<p>I can’t speak for all NU a cappella groups, but I think the group D is in is mostly Vocal Performance and Theatre majors, though anyone is eligible to audition.</p>
<p>I heard that last year it was very hard to get into a group, as I think there were only 16 open slots and hundreds of people auditioned. I’ve heard that this year there are more open slots, but that varies year-to-year depending on who graduates, etc.</p>
<p>I’ve also heard of people who didn’t get in to an existing group starting their own group so, as seems to be true of most things at NU, if you are really committed there is always a way to make it happen.</p>
<p>There’s also to a prior thread that might interest you.</p>

<p>D’s a cappella group quickly become like a second family for her at NU, so if you’re a singer I’d really urge you to get involved!</p>
