IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR PROSPECTIVE BAND MEMBERS
Please download and return (as necessary) the following forms and information:
Prospective Goin' Band Member:
We hope that your school year is ending well and that you are excited to begin the next step in your education. We sincerely hope that Goin' Band and Texas Tech University are in your future plans.
If you are planning on auditioning for the marching band, then read this material carefully. The first event for you is registration. This letter will serve as a guide to help you get into the correct course sections for the band. Here are the following items that you need to do immediately:
- Fill out and return the Goin' Band Information Sheet ASAP. We must have this information by June 30th. Please complete all parts of the forms by printing clearly. If we cannot read any part of the material, you may miss out on valuable information.
- Enclose a check or money order made payable to Texas Tech University for the correct amount and return with your application. In the event that you do not make the band, you will receive a full refund from the university upon following the refund instructions found on our website.
- Share this information with anyone who you know is interested in joining Goin' Band. Have them visit the website and complete the brief form there under Contact Us.
- Take the Registration Helper Sheet (on the bottom of this page) to Red Raider Orientation this summer to assist you and your advisor on the best marching band course to sign-up for.
All will report to Hemmle Recital Hall in the Music Building on Saturday, August 18th at 1 PM. Dorms will open that morning at 8 AM. You will only have time for a quick move-in as we have to get started as quickly as we can. You will have a good deal of additional time during summer band that is open for you to prepare your room and to get supplies for your classes.
We realize that you may have a number of questions, but we will have Goin' Band representatives available during Red Raider Orientation at the Student Organizations Fair to answer your questions.
