<p>To the best of my knowledge, UVA is a non-audition admit based program, but ensemble participation appears to audition based.</p>

<p>A mention from CC music major forum, but consider also the requirements for a performance track/undergrad music pursuit for career in music typically vary substantially from those that are just interested in a participatory experience, so weigh the comments accordingly.</p>

<p>“Toured internationally” can have a few definitions, from a school/youth orchestra sponsored student paid trip to paid professional contract touring schedules. Depending on your level of skills, training and musical talent and how you fit, UVA may or may not provide what you want. </p>

<p>It’s typically best to read through any institution’s music department/school of music webpages to determine the breath, depth and requirements/restrictions for ensemble participation. The satisfaction factor can be a function of the peer level, and the “fit” for a conservatory level serious player can often be a far higher standard than an “average” talent just wishing to play at the college level.</p>
