Membership Period: The membership period is September 1 - August 31. Membership fees paid will provide MAR Membership through August 31, 2027. Membership fees may be paid after September 15th but the membership period will still end August 31, 2027 and the fee will not be pro-rated.
Registration Instructions
The membership fee is per institution; please have one person per institution complete the registration process. Any music admission representatives from each member institution will have access to MAR member resources (see more details under Step 2).
Select “1” for the quantity. If you select more than 1, you will be charged multiple membership fees.

Step 2
Once your institution has purchased an annual membership, persons working for a MAR member institution in music admission roles may sign up for the private membership site. You must sign-up using your institution email address and meet the below eligibility requirements to access the MAR member site:
Employed at a MAR Member Institution and your institution has paid the annual membership fee for the current year.
You are a music admission professional at a MAR Member Institution.
A music admission professional is defined as a conservatory, college or university employee whose assigned professional responsibilities include a specific and substantive role in the recruitment, admission, audition, evaluation, enrollment, or admission-related advising of prospective students to a music program, school, department, or conservatory. To qualify as a music admission professional, an individual must have admission-related responsibilities that are formally assigned as part of their position, as demonstrated by their official job title, job description, assigned duties, or other institutional documentation.
Access to the MAR member resources is not intended for faculty members (unless their official position or job description specifically assigns them a substantive responsibility for music admission, recruitment, audition administration, applicant evaluation, or another defined admission function); Deans, associate deans, assistant deans, and other academic administrators (unless their official position specifically includes a substantive, operational responsibility for music admission or recruitment); and department chairs, program directors, or other academic leaders whose responsibilities are primarily academic or administrative rather than specifically admission-related.
This is intended to ensure that MAR’s resources and activities are available to professionals who have a direct, professional responsibility for music admission and recruitment while maintaining a distinction between admission professionals and individuals whose primary responsibilities are faculty, academic leadership, or general institutional administration.
