USA: Starr Doctoral Fellows Program

The C.V. Starr Doctoral Fellows Program, made possible by a generous endowment grant from the Starr Foundation, enables all candidates accepted into the D.M.A. degree to pursue their resident studies on a full-tuition scholarship basis.

The Doctor of Musical Arts degree program is the most advanced course of study offered at The Juilliard School. Admission to this program is limited to the most gifted and accomplished musicians who also possess a broad range of knowledge about music, a keen intellect, a natural curiosity for a wide variety of disciplines, and the potential for pursuing high-level performance, scholarly, and teaching careers.

The Doctor of Musical Arts degree program requires a minimum full-time residency at Juilliard of two years. All degree requirements must be completed within five years of admission. Following the required two years of full-time residency, doctoral candidates who have not completed the document and/or recital requirements need not pay tuition but are required to pay an annual matriculation fee. Any requests for extension of the five-year limit on enrollment in the program must be made in writing to the Doctoral Governance Committee prior to that limit (the exact date for
extension requests is specified in the D.M.A. Program calendar). Doctoral students' eligibility for awards from Juilliard scholarship funds is limited to two years. Continued instruction in the major field is available upon request at an additional charge for the first year of non-residency.

The D.M.A. degree is available in the following areas of specialization:

- Collaborative Piano
- Composition
- Keyboard Instruments
- Harpsichord
- Organ
- Piano
- Orchestral Instruments
- Voice
