Before Orientation
Please complete all necessary administrative requirements, including your tuition payment, photo ID submission, and placement exams prior to orientation.
To check the status of your administrative requirements, do the following:
Log in to berklee.edu using the ID and password sent to you by Admissions.
Select "Campus Tools," then "My Berklee" from the menu at the top right.
Log in to MyBerklee, then select "Students" on the right.
Select "Semester Check-In Requirements" from the Check-In section.
Any outstanding check-in requirements will be listed there. It is important to complete all of these requirements before you arrive. You will not be able to check-in until you have submitted all of your administrative requirements.
Placement Auditions
It is important that you attend your HJS orientation and complete your placement audition so that we can finalize your class schedule. Your placement audition date, time, and location have been sent to your Berklee.edu email address. Please contact your advisor, Jeff Williams, if you have not received this information. Learn more about how to prepare for your placement audition. (Please note: Your placement audition scheduling process is different from the full-time Berklee undergraduate student process.)
Accessibility and Accommodations
We are committed to welcoming and accommodating all students and their families. Participants who need assistance or accommodations to experience the week's events are encouraged to email the Graduate Studies Division graduatestudies@berklee.edu in advance.
Technology Requirements for Joint Studies Students
As part of the Harvard-Berklee Joint Studies program, you may need to meet specific technology requirements depending on your curriculum here at Berklee. You do, however, have the option to purchase a technology package from Berklee.
These packages are available to all joint studies students. You can purchase them from the Technology Service Desk with a Visa or Mastercard.
