Winds and Percussion Student for a Day
Monday, September 21, 2026
Student for a Day is an immersive, on‑campus experience designed for junior and senior Winds & Percussion students to explore what it’s like to study music at ECU. Participants spend the day attending a mock class, rehearsing with the Symphonic Wind Ensemble, working directly with faculty in masterclasses, and learning about degree options in performance, education, therapy, and composition. The event also includes lunch on campus and opportunities to connect with current students and faculty—all at no cost.
Registration information and further details about the day’s activities are included below.
Due to capacity having been reached, registration is now closed for the 2026 W&P Student for a Day. If you weren’t able to register, and would still like to visit, please feel free to schedule an individual visit using THIS link. Or contact Mr. Josh Bishop at: bishopj24@ecu.edu.
