Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I use practice rooms or classrooms to teach private lessons or hold recitals for my own
private studio?
A: Music practice rooms and classrooms are only to be used for activities related to your
studies at USU. Allowable activities include: chamber rehearsals, accompanist
rehearsals, music club meetings, group study sessions, audition recordings, recital
hearings, approved recitals, etc. Other activities, such as private studio recitals, require a
third-party rental process or approval from the Department Head.

Please do not practice in the loading dock while classes are being held. The sound
echoes and disrupts classes on the second floor. Please do not practice in the hallways.

If you’re not sure whether your concert is being livestreamed, ask your ensemble
director
Q: Can I keep using my instrument locker over the summer?
A: Yes! If you need to keep using your locker over the summer, please come visit the Music
Office and let us know before the locker clean-out date. We can work with you if you
communicate with us before we start clearing out lockers. Otherwise, summer locker
reservations begin one week after Spring semester ends.
Q: Can I use practice rooms over the summer?
A: Yes! Instrumental practice rooms are still free to use over the summer. Upright
Piano/Vocal rooms cost $20, and Grand Piano rooms cost the same as during Fall and
Spring semesters.
