The Peabody Preparatory serves the broader musical community. Its students range in age from infants to senior citizens and in skill from beginners to soon-to-be-professionals. Former students include Philip Glass, Hilary Hahn, and Tori Amos.

With the approval of the appropriate dean of your division at Johns Hopkins, full-time undergraduate students of The Whiting School of Engineering and Krieger School of Arts & Sciences may take advantage of the resources of the Preparatory branch of Peabody. Cross Registration private lessons at the Preparatory are provided at a 25% discount. This discount does not apply to classes. An audition is not necessary to enroll in Preparatory non-credit private lessons, although you may be asked to meet with faculty so they hear you to be placed appropriately.

A Cross Registration form, signed by your school’s Office of the Registrar is required. The signed Cross Registration form should be emailed to peabodyprep@jhu.edu prior to your first private lesson to confirm eligibility and cost. Cross registration private lessons are offered in thirty minutes, forty-five minutes, or an hour. You do not receive elective credit for lessons at the Preparatory.
