To include music in your visit, as you are arranging with the KU Office of Admissions for the campus tour, please let the representative know that you would like to meet with music and in what area you are interested. They will coordinate with the School of Music Undergraduate Recruiter who can arrange a tour of School of Music facilities and schedule a meeting with a representative in your specific area of study.
