Mannes School Of Music Acceptance Rate

 According the schoolโ€™s website, the number of accepted students varies each year, but โ€œwe generally admit about one third of applicants.โ€

A more reliable number would be about a 24% acceptance rate for Mannes; of course, putting it more in reach than say Juilliard.

Keep in mind sometimes the numbers just donโ€™t work to your advantage. For example, teachers can only take on a certain number of students for a given instrument each year. In these cases, musicians who apply for maxed-out studios are usually refunded their application fee and told no one who plays their instrument will be accepted that particular year.


Tuition & Feesย 

For undergraduates, the tuition for Mannes is $24,300 per term (so $48,600 per academic year).

For graduates, the tuition is slightly lower at $45,776 per year. Room and board at Mannes is reasonable given the cost of living in NYC. A shared room starts at $19,200 per year and students can choose from several meal plans, the most expensive starting at $1,850 per year.

You can find a helpful breakdown of the cost of attending Mannes here.

If you do need financial help to pay for additional costs at Mannes, we recommend you apply for support through FAFSA, which can also be used to cover expenses above and beyond tuition costs.


Requirements and Admissions Tips

Mannes offers both a Bachelor of Music and a Master of Music. Fields of study include: Orchestral Instruments (Brass, Strings, Woodwinds), Piano, Harpsichord, Voice, Classical Guitar, Orchestral Conducting, Composition, and Theory. For those of you pursuing Jazz, youโ€™d apply to the Jazz School at The New School and for those of you pursing drama, youโ€™d apply to The School of Drama at the New School.

To apply to Mannes, you must submit your supplemental materials (such as your transcripts, recommendations, and essays), your common app, your prescreening (if applicable) using the electronically submitted Acceptd site, and (if invited) a live audition. You can find a complete and detailed list of application instructions to Mannes here.

If you are accepted to audition at Mannes, I would recommend you schedule a lesson with a faculty member in the department you are interested in enrolling into at Mannes prior to your audition.

Knowing how a specific teacher works with you is critical for determining if a school is a good fit. Also, if they like you and your playing in your lesson together, your chance for getting in might be higher. Keep in mind this is only a recommendation and not a fact in every instance.

If you work with Music School Central in our college consulting program, we can help facilitate a meeting with you and a member of the faculty at Mannes, or nearly any other program in the world.
