MUSIC LIVES AND THRIVES ON THE HILL
30% of Oles participate in one of our 18 music ensembles, but only 8% of those students are music majors. That’s because our music program is open to every student, even those who aren’t music majors. That is also why all incoming students, regardless of major, are able to apply for and be awarded music scholarships.
