The Music Major Advantage (MMA) is an initiative to give incoming music majors the largest scholarship package possible. Through MMA, the department aggregates scholarships and financial awards from across campus and adds funding from all areas of the Department of Music, including ensembles, to make one competitive package offer: the Music Major Advantage.

During the MMA visit day students will have the opportunity to tour campus, learn about music degree programs, potential careers, meet with current students and faculty, experience ensembles, and attend classes.
