The way to admission

The prerequisite for admission to a bachelor's degree program (BA) is passing the artistic admission examination. For this, an online application is first required, during which an application video must often also be submitted. If the application video is evaluated positively, an invitation to the admission examination is issued.

Admission to a Master's program (MA) requires, in addition to passing the artistic admission examination, the completion of a Bachelor's program (BA) in a relevant subject at a recognized Austrian or foreign post-secondary educational institution (e.g. university, college).

In order to be able to start a teacher training program in secondary education (general education) in the Central Cluster, students must first pass a pedagogical aptitude test (general admission procedure). By the time of application and registration for the general admission procedure, the online self-assessment must have been completed, the cost contribution paid and the registration for an appointment for the Electronic Admission Test made - details can be found at  https://lehrerin-werden.at

For the teaching subjects offered at the Mozarteum University ( Fine Arts Education,   Design: Technology.Textiles, Music Education and Instrumental Music Education) an artistic admission examination is also required.

Admission to a postgraduate university course (PGL) requires the completion of a subject-related master's degree or diploma program at a recognized domestic or foreign postsecondary educational institution in the respective central artistic subject. Admission with a pedagogical degree such as teaching or instrumental & vocal pedagogy is NOT possible. In addition, the prerequisite for admission to a course of study is the successful completion of an artistic admission examination.

The examination of the pre-study documents can take up to 4 weeks! Early registration is therefore recommended.

Registration for a study program is only possible if a degree for this study program has not yet been obtained.

Details on the respective admission procedures, the admission-relevant bachelor studies for the registration for master studies and information on the required repertoire can be found at the respective study program.

In the file attached below you will find templates for preparing for the Music Theory entrance examination. These are divided into three parts: I. Basics, II. Composition and III. Aural Training.

The basics relate in part to the written as well as the oral examination, whereby the text specifies exactly what should be paid attention to. This knowledge is absolutely necessary for the candidates. Part II - Tonsatz - concerns the written examination in the task - Suspending the basso continuo. An extended cadenza should be performed by the candidates at the piano during the oral examination, not in C major and A minor. In Part III - Aural Training - orientation examples are given for the dictations in the oral examination. It is helpful for candidates to analyse, play and sing these examples.
