Specialty interests on the application?

<p>Hello! I'm not sure where to post this, so I'm gonna put it here. I spend a lot of my time producing electronic music, predominately dubstep and house. Is there a way to share my music with the admissions office, as someone who played the piano or another instrument could? Is this even something to bring up on the application? I think I am quite good, so I don't think it could HURT.</p>

<p>Also, I am a tuba player with the city civic orchestra and youth orchestra, so would I have to decide between which music to send them (tuba or electronic)? Thank you for any help! I know this is a weird question.</p>

<p>Bump…</p>

<p>Are you going to be a music major?</p>

<p>Use the search feature, type ‘arts supplement’ you will see some past answers to similar questions.</p>

<p>Well, I’ll probably list as undecided, since i have interests in history and mathematics. However, my main question is can I use electronic music in my art supplement since it is a huge hobby of mine. How would colleges see dubstep or house in an art supplement? Would they see it as unique and something that would add diversity at the school, or something that is not impressive and annoying?</p>

<p>If I sent them an quality EP of 3-4 songs on it, would that go over well (assuming the content is superb for that genre)?</p>

Sorry I titled this thread badly, but I’d just like some thoughtful responses. Perhaps if you were an admissions officer, how would you feel receiving this?</p>

<p>Did you search “Arts supplement” as suggested by Brownparent?</p>

<p>Arts supplements received by the Admissions Office are usually forwarded to the academic department relevant to the submitted material. I’m not sure what department would be able to evaluate the artistic merit of electronic music.</p>

<p>Instead of an Arts Supplement, you might consider an Additional LOR from someone you have worked with who is a respected expert in the field.</p>

<p>Well, I’m not really close to anyone who is an expert in the field. I just do it for fun, and it is a big hobby of mine, so I’d like some way for the college to hear my music. I did search for art supplements, however no one seemed to be interested in electronic music. I don’t see why a music prof. couldn’t evaluate an electronic piece of music though…</p>
