1 GENERAL REGULATIONS
With these regulations the Academy of Music of the University of Ljubljana (hereafter the AM) specifies
the contents and the process of the audition of music and artistic skills and knowledge (hereafter the

methods for their enrolling into the AM.
The AM is open to applicants who meet the requirements set out in the Call for Enrolment Into Study
Programmes of the University of Ljubljana (hereafter the Call for Enrolment) and successfully pass the

Vice Dean of Student Affairs of the AM names the Audition Committee (hereafter the Committee),

Committee hands in the results immediately following the audition in a written form to the Department of
Student Affairs of the AM.
The audition dates are defined in each year’s Call for Enrolment Into Second Cycle Master Study
Programmes published by the Ministry of Higher Education, Science and Technology.
The audition takes place at the AM.
The applicants who are not applying as graduates of the Bachelor’s Degree Programmes of the AM and
need an official piano accompanist for the audition have to indicate this on the application. In this case,
they have to specify their audition programme and send the sheet music for the piano accompanist at least

Upon completing the audition, the applicants will receive a certificate with their result by letter.
