Between 7:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. Monday to Friday, all posted parking requirements for the campus lots and parking garage are strictly enforced.

Spring 2026 Registration
Registration for all Â鶹ÊÓƵCMS classes, ensembles, and lessons is officially open on December 1, 2025, just in time for Christmas giving! For most offerings, it will remain open through January 26, 2026.
Note 1: As it is throughout the entire year, private lesson registration is flexible and ongoing throughout the semester; however, most students sign up for a full semester of lessons, or nearly the full semester, depending on their schedules. The spring 2026 semester is 14 weeks.
Note 2: The crimson “Register Now” button is only for students new to the Â鶹ÊÓƵ Community Music School. Anyone who has been a student in the past should simply email community-music@iup.edu to register for the upcoming semester and with inquiries.
If the "Register Now" bar on the Registration Page does not work for you, please immediately email community-music@iup.edu and let us know!
Registration Fee
The Â鶹ÊÓƵ Community Music School assesses a $25 registration fee per individual student, per semester for the fall and spring semesters. This fee supports a very small portion of the total administrative costs associated with running the school.
