CLASSIFICATION
(3) Exceptions: (2) 10th grade first year music students and instrumentalist performing on a secondary instrument may enter Class 3 solo competition.
NON-CONFORMANCE
Music selections listed on the entry form become program requirements for the solo and/or ensemble performance unless the contest chair (executive secretary) is officially notified of selection changes. Students may be entered as late as the day of the contest. However, all entries after the deadline date will be required to pay a $10.00 per student entry fee.

HS VOCAL & INSTRUMENTAL SOLO/ENS: $8.00 per solo and $7.00 per member of each ensemble ($10.00 for students entered after the deadline date)
JH/MS VOCAL & INSTRUMENTAL SOLO/ENS: $7.00 per solo and $7.00 per member of each ensemble ($10.00 for students entered after the deadline date)
WHAT TO DO:
SUBMIT ONLINE - 1 COPY for each entry "FORM 6, 7 and/or 8" ("ONLINE"ENTRY) Each school will print their own adjudication forms (6, 7, and 8) and bring them to the contest. It is NOT necessary that you mail copies. Be sure to set all page margins to 0.25 (under "file", "page setup" on the tool bar) before you print so that the entire unique identification # will print on the form. Use the head director’s login when entering all events on line. This is necessary for recording results. Student's name should appear last name, first name. The EVENT space must contain the name of the event (EX: 107 Treble Solo; 202 Flute Solo, 172 Tenor-Bass Small Ensemble, etc). CLASS of event must be indicated {Class 1 or 2 or 3}. Once all your students are entered, PLEASE send me an e-mail indicating the accompanist by name if you know it...if not assign an alpha or a number to each accompanist...and the number of events for which that accompanist will be playing (example: Ms. Smith - 4 brass, 23 woodwinds) It will be much easier for me to schedule and avoid conflicts if I have this information. UIL ID # must be present on ALL high school entries. Once an entry is submitted, the only way to change it is to totally delete the form and re-enter it. High school directors: Please use the drop down menus when making student selections. It is almost impossible to make a mistake using the drop down menu.
MAIL:
Copy of the invoice (Form 1A) and a CHECK for FEES (checks should be for all entries submitted by the deadline date, not just those who actually participate) – do not mail your FORM ONE or your FORM NINE. The FORM NINE will automatically be created as you enter your students.
ALL ENTRIES SHOULD BE COMPLETED NO LATER THAN THE DEADLINE DATE THE CHECK MUST BE RECEIVED SEVEN DAYS PRIOR TO THE FIRST DAY OF THE CONTEST.
BRING TO THE CONTEST:
One copy of your FORM ONE signed by the principal and a check for any late entries. This is required in order for your students to participate. Once Again (I know I am being redundant, but...) each school will print their own adjudication forms (6, 7, and 8) and bring them to the contest. Be sure to set all page margins to 0.25 (under "file", "page setup" on the tool bar) before you print so that the entire unique identification # will print on the form. Use the head director’s login when entering all events on line. If you have problems printing your forms, call me and I will assist you with it. Bring all DNAs to the contest office when you check in. DO NOT delete any DNAs. Once students are entered, they must be accounted for in the adjudication process…either with a rating or as a DNA.
Please e-mail the executive secretary regarding any special scheduling requests that you may have no later than the entry deadline date. These need to be special problems that include an explanation...Not just I would like to have my students play on Friday night or in the morning, etc...I need to know why so I can make an informed decision if requests are too numerous to honor for everyone.
