I initially tried out for the university band, and made it on 75% scholarship. The music department is known as one of the best in the state, known for its big-band sound made from a small group of about 150-170 people. I eventually dropped my contract for the music degree after 2 years, and changed to Sociology due to how I felt about things in my life and where I wanted to be. There are stringent requirements to be accpeted into this small school, all of which you can find on their website. If you ever get a chance to visit the campus, do it. You will be thoroughly impressed.
