- Images (up to 5 MB each)

We cannot assist students with issues submitting their supplements unless they have created an account in SlideRoom and started their portfolio by November 4 11:59 PM EST (Early Decision and QuestBridge Match applicants) or January 7 11:59 PM EST (Regular Decision applicants). Creating a SlideRoom account and starting your portfolio well before submitting your material is strongly recommended to ensure that you are able to meet the submission requirements. You may also link to media from YouTube, Vimeo or SoundCloud. A $5 non-refundable processing fee is required at the time of submission. If you have a Common Application fee waiver, the SlideRoom fee will automatically be waived. Fee waivers can also be requested by emailing admission@brown.edu prior to submitting your SlideRoom portfolio. QuestBridge applicants submitting a music portfolio should use the QuestBridge program in SlideRoom.
Students uploading a music submission should include the following information:
- Your primary instrument or method of music-making with years studied.
- A description of your musical training and experience. Include any relevant classes (e.g., music theory), private study, or group music making.
- Original compositions should be marked as such, with a score included if applicable.
- We ask that you also list composer(s) and title(s).
- The total length of recordings should not exceed 15 minutes.
- SlideRoom only allows students to submit one portfolio to the same program. In most circumstances, students should submit materials for only their primary instrument or method of music-making.
- In the rare circumstance where a student has equally impressive talent in more than one area, they may submit materials in a secondary area. After a student has submitted their primary instrument they will be prompted to submit an additional form for their secondary instrument.
