Teachers register their students and themselves on AuditionWare (instructions below). All teachers with students registered must judge auditions or provide a substitute judge. No exceptions. If you are submitting more than fifteen students, you will be required to provide an additional judge for each additional grouping of 1-15 students.
Judging will take place between December 12 and January 3. All students must study with a NATS teacher. Specific category and repertoire requirements can be found here.
Fees: Teacher registration: $45
Student registration: $35 (includes conference registration and 1 category)
Additional categories (per student): $35
