Audition Entry Tip: When navigating through the audition entry process, please use the navigation links provided on the page instead of the back button on your Internet browser. Using the back button may cause a “Page Expired” warning. If this occurs, refresh the page to view it again.

TMEA audition policies (state-level, Division appendices, and Region-level) are available in the audition entry system on the Campus List page and the Student List page.

Who Can Enter Students

You must be a current Active or Life Member to enter students for auditions. If you have been a TMEA member before, renew your membership. If you have not previously been a TMEA member you must create an account and become an Active member before accessing these pages.

Update Your Information

If you have not already updated your personal information through your membership record, please do so before logging in for the first time. If you have already renewed your membership, you can return to your record just to update your information.

Establish a Campus

Audition campus records are cleared at the beginning of each school year and are unique to the person who created them, unless additional directors are added. This means, for example, the band, orchestra, and choir directors at the same school will all have separate campus records and not see each other’s entries.

We recommend the head director create the campus record for their school program and then add other directors so they can access and manage entries if needed. Whoever creates the campus record will be the primary contact for audition information.

  1. Login as Director using the link above.
  2. If you have not yet created a campus or been added to one, you will be redirected to the “Add A Campus” page automatically.
    • If you already have a campus listed, use the “Add A Campus” button on the Campus List page to create a new one.
  3. Enter all of the required information for your school.
  4. Click the “Add Campus” button to create the campus and return to the campus list.
  5. For additional directors you didn’t add when creating the campus (or if you have more than 5), click the “Add Another Director” button under the school. Directors you add have full access to manage entries under the campus record.
  6. To enter students for more than one school, click the “Add A Campus” link from the campus list to create a campus record for each school.
Enter Students/Student Handouts

The instructions below are for entering students through the web site.

  1. On the campus list, click “View Contests” next to the campus for which you want to enter students.

  3. Click “Enter Students” next to the desired audition.
  4. The student list will display the current entries for an audition.
  5. Click the “Student Handout” link for a printable form that you can give your students to fill out. This form will contain all of the required student information for the audition you have selected. The form may be different for other audition.
  6. You have two options on how to enter students:
    1. If you have a large number of entries and want to upload them in a file, click the “Enter Students via File Upload” link and continue with the instructions on that page.
    2. To enter students through a form on the website, click the “Enter Students via Web” link and continue with step 7.
  7. Enter all of the required information and click “Enter Student” to save the entry. If errors are present, a message will be displayed and you will be able to correct them.
  8. Once submitted you can add another student or return to the student list.
  9. To edit or delete an entry click the appropriate button next to the student on the student list.
