Our application process is structured to help us get to know you as a whole person. Applying to Walnut Hill will allow you the opportunity to explore our programs by meeting educators and student artists just like yourself. Please be aware that you are able to apply to more than one arts major if applicable but that you can only choose one arts major once enrolled at Walnut Hill.
You will find our preferred application on Veracross. In addition to submitting an application, you also must complete an audition or portfolio review depending on which artistic focus you are interested in applying for. Please visit the audition section of our website here for more information.
To begin the application process, please submit an inquiry, and Veracross, our application portal, will email you to create an account.
Our application requires biographical information, a student questionnaire, and a parent questionnaire. Applicants are asked to submit one academic teacher recommendation of the student's choice and one arts recommendation of the student's choice. We also require an official transcript containing three years worth of academic grades.
We recommended that applicants request these documents directly from their online application.
