Minors + Community Members in UISO; Community Members in UICSO, Guidelines:

1. UISO will welcome community members to audition to participate in the orchestra string sections only.
2. These players will adhere to all of the course policies published on the syllabus.
3. All members of the orchestra will register for the class.
4. Community members must apply and be accepted to the University of Iowa as non-degree seeking students before they can register. Nondegree Students | Admissions - The University of Iowa (uiowa.edu) non-degree
5. Tuition and fees of $656.75 will be assessed for 1 credit hour of enrollment per semester for in state or out of state students. This number could change if the Board of Regents approves a tuition increase for fall semester. The University of Iowa – Tuition & Fees (uiowa.edu). I did double check and non-degree students would have to pay 1 semester hour of tuition and all of the associated fees, so this cost is much higher than we discussed.
6. UI employees may be able to take the course on an audit basis. Here are the CLAS policies on auditing a class: Registration Policies | College of Liberal Arts and Sciences (uiowa.edu) Community players who are also 50%-100% UI employees can request to audit one course per semester with tuition and fees waived Faculty/Staff Application to Audit One Course with Tuition and Fees Waived (uiowa.edu).
7. Current high school students may be able to apply through their guidance counselors for PSEO support for partial tuition if their high school doesn’t offer orchestra or they meet other local eligibility requirements. They’d have to check with their school to find out the specifics.  Nondegree Students | Admissions - The University of Iowa (uiowa.edu)
