OBERLIN, OHIO -- Admissions officers from the Oberlin Conservatory of 
Music, the Juilliard School, and the New England Conservatory of Music will 
be among those representing nearly 20 of the most prestigious schools in 
the United States at the Performing Arts College Fair, which will be held 
Monday, Oct. 11, from 4:30 to 7:30 p.m. in the lobby of Warner Concert Hall 
at the Oberlin Conservatory of Music. Students interested in continuing 
their education in the performing arts are invited to attend this free 
event, along with their parents.

Hosted by the Conservatory, the Performing Arts College Fair provides 
students seeking an undergraduate or graduate program in the performing 
arts the chance to meet one-on-one with admissions representatives from 
many of the nation's top colleges, universities, conservatories, and summer 
arts programs. Students can receive information about entrance 
requirements, auditions, and financial aid opportunities.

"This is a great opportunity to see many major performing arts schools in 
one place," says Beth Weiss, Associate Director of Conservatory Admissions. 
"It's certainly easier than driving all around the country to visit them in 
person."

As an adjunct to the fair, the Conservatory will host special information 
sessions about its own degree programs. These sessions are scheduled for 9 
a.m., 11 a.m., 1 p.m., and 3 p.m. Students and their parents can speak with 
an Oberlin admissions counselor and tour the Conservatory with current 
music students. Campus-wide tours are also available at 10 a.m., noon, 
2:30, and 4:30 p.m.

"October 11 is Columbus Day, and many high schools will be closed, making 
this an ideal time to explore the Conservatory's professional music and 
degree programs," says Weiss.

Visiting information, including a campus map, accommodation information, 
and driving directions, are available at www.oberlin.edu/visitor/.

The following schools will have representatives at this year's fair:

- Boston Conservatory of Music
- Chicago College of Performing Arts
- Cincinnati Conservatory of Music
- Cleveland Institute of Music
- Eastman School of Music
- Indiana University
- The Juilliard School
- Mannes College of Music
- Manhattan School of Music
- New England Conservatory
- Northwestern University
- Oberlin Conservatory of Music
- Peabody Conservatory
