Eastman School of Music

The Eastman School of Music educates talented musicians from around the world who become leaders and innovators in all fields of music. Established in 1921 by Eastman Kodak Company founder and visionary George Eastman, the School—part of the University of Rochester (NY)—has achieved international prominence through its enduring commitment to the highest standards of artistry, scholarship, and leadership. More than 900 students are enrolled in the collegiate division of the Eastman School—about 500 undergraduate students and 325 graduate students. They come from almost every state, and approximately 20% are from other countries. Each year, about 260 new students enroll, selected from more than 1,400 applications.
